Priest at the Golden Altar of Incense
This engraving depicts a Jewish Priest burning incense in the Golden Altar of Incense. Incense was burned daily on this altar during morning and the evening sacrifices. According to Rabbis, this was the part of the daily temple service that was most beloved by God. The burning of the incense was symbolic of the prayer of the people rising up to God. The offering of this incense took place after the sacrifice, because only after the atonement could communion with God take place. After this offering the priests would pronounce the Priestly Blessing upon the people

EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative engraving captures the sacred moment of a Jewish Priest performing the daily ritual of burning incense at the Golden Altar of Incense in the Temple. The Golden Altar, one of the most revered objects in the Temple, was used exclusively for the offering of incense. According to Jewish tradition, this practice was most beloved by God, symbolizing the prayers of the people ascending to the divine presence. The burning of incense took place after the morning and evening sacrifices, signifying that only after atonement could communion with the Almighty be sought. The Priest, clad in his ornate robes, would carefully place the burning coals and incense on the altar, releasing a fragrant cloud that filled the Temple courtyard. The offering of incense marked the culmination of the daily temple service, a time of deep reverence and connection to the divine. Following this offering, the priests would pronounce the Priestly Blessing upon the people, imparting God's blessings and protection upon the Jewish community. This engraving offers a glimpse into the rich and intricate religious practices of ancient Judaism, a faith that continues to inspire and captivate people around the world. The burning of incense at the Golden Altar remains a powerful reminder of the enduring connection between the human spirit and the divine, a bond that transcends time and tradition.
