“And there shalt thou build an altar unto the Lord thy God, an altar of stones: thou shalt not lift up any iron tool upon them.”
You shall offer burnt offerings on it to the LORD your God — the altar at Mount Ebal is functional: Israel sacrifices to God in the land of promise. Burnt offerings ('olah) are total offerings, given entirely to God, signifying complete devotion.
