The Sages said: If so, there is no end to the matter.", "All seven days [of his sequestration], [the High Priest] casts the blood, and burns the incense, and cleans the lamps, and offers the head and the leg [of the continual-offering]. All other days, if he wants to offer, he offers — for the High Priest offers a portion first, and takes a portion first." ] ], "sectionNames": [ "Chapter", "Mishnah" ] }
