The Temple Institute: Yom Kippur in the Holy Temple: Coals for the Incense

Coals for the Incense

Atop the altar, the High Priest uses the shovel to stir the fire, and he gathers some of the burning coals from the midst of the fire into this vessel. When he desends the ramp, he will return to where the priest waits with the mizrak, and he will place the shovel and its coals on the floor, next to where his colleague stands.
