This is ordained for Israel forever.2 Chronicles 13:11Every morning and every evening they present burnt offerings and fragrant incense to the LORD. They set out the rows of showbread on the ceremonially clean table, and every evening they light the lamps of the gold lampstand. We are carrying out the requirements of the LORD our God, while you have forsaken Him.2 Chronicles 26:16But when Uzziah became powerful, his arrogance led to his own destruction.

Only the priests, the descendants of Aaron, are consecrated to burn incense. Leave the sanctuary, for you have acted unfaithfully; you will not receive honor from the LORD God.”2 Chronicles 26:19Uzziah, with a censer in his hand to offer incense, was enraged.
