S3E16: The Centrality of the Kohen Gadol (Yoma 4:5-6)
from Mishna Accomplished · host Rabba Aliza Libman Baronofsky
Today’s mishnas continue drawing distinctions between every other day in the mikdash versus the Kohen Gadol on Yom Kippur. We learn about how the kohanim would go up and down the ramp of the altar, how the Kohen Gadol washed his hands, and how many fires were kept at the top of the altar. Along the way, we consider the larger role of glorifying the Kohen Gadol - is it to honor him or for some larger purpose? You can find these mishnas here.
