In the temple in Jerusalem, there was an inner priestly courtyard containing an altar for sacrifice and a large basin of water, which the priests used to cleanse themselves before performing sacred service.
Jeruzalemes templī bija iekšējais priesteru pagalms, kur bija novietots altāris upurēšanai un liels mazgājamais trauks ar ūdeni — to priesteri izmantoja, lai attīrītos pirms svētās kalpošanas.
