"3 Even the sparrow finds a home, and the swallow a nest for herself,
where she may lay her young, at your altars, O Lord of hosts, my King and my God."
"Our first altar is Christ, Himself the Priest and the Sacrifice and our Altar, on which we are placed and offered to God the Father, and in Him we offer all our sacrifices. And He in His body presented us to God, mortified in the flesh but made alive in the spirit. But if He offered us in His body, then His body is our altar, since the offering cannot be made except on the altar. His cross was His altar on which He was Himself given for us, offering us in Himself."
