(9) What was a sacrifice of wood? Certain families had a fixed time on which they would go out to the forests and bring wood for the arrangement [on the altar]. On the day designated for this family to bring their sacrifices, they would bring voluntary burnt offerings. This was called the sacrifice of the wood. It was like a festival for these families and they were forbidden to have eulogies delivered, fast, and perform work on that day. This was a custom.
(10) Even a private individual who gave wood or logs for the arrangement [of the altar] is forbidden to have eulogies delivered, fast, and perform work on that day. This was a custom.
