incense altars, structures or implements for burning incense
This feminine plural noun designates incense altars or incense-burning implements. Second Chronicles 30:14 records Hezekiah's reformation: 'They removed the altars...and all the incense altars they took away.' The term appears with the definite article, indicating known cult objects. These were likely small altars or stands specifically designed for burning incense, distinct from the main sacrificial altar. Their removal signaled comprehensive cultic purification, eliminating both major and minor idolatrous installations.
Sentidos
1. sense 1 — Incense altars or stands used for burning aromatic offerings, mentioned in 2 Chronicles' account of Hezekiah's religious reforms. The plural form with definite article ('the incense altars') suggests multiple small installations throughout Jerusalem dedicated to incense burning, probably both legitimate and illegitimate. Spanish 'incensarios' (censers/incense burners) captures the instrumental sense. Their removal alongside main altars shows the thoroughness of reform—eliminating not just central shrines but the dispersed paraphernalia of incense cult that had proliferated during apostasy. 1×
