  That particular piece of scripture is amazing only when explained thoroughly. So I will try my best to do so. In the old testamen there are types of Jesus and forshadows of his comming.If you study the thefloorplan of the tabernacle it is shaped like a cross, and so on. but the burning of incense is explianed throughout the bible as a symbol fo praise and worship, so the significance of the alter is for twothings one is to forshadow the comonig of christ and the other is to alude to praise and worship of god not to mention it's original use to bring a sweet savour outo god. for a better explanation look in the search for tuth bible study, sold by the word aflame co.
