This symbolizes the offerings of five notable figures in the Old Testament who presented acceptable sacrifices to the Lord: 1. Abel. 2. Noah (“And the LORD smelled a soothing aroma”). 3. Melchizedek (who offered bread and wine and blessed Abraham). 4. Aaron (who offered sacrifices for himself and the people, and fire came out from the Lord to consume the offering as a sign of acceptance). 5. Zechariah (to whom the angel announced the birth of John the Baptist while standing at the right side of the altar of incense).
