Censer:
A small portable vessel of metal fitted to receive burning coals from the altar, and on which the incense for burning was sprinkled (2 Chronicles 26:19; Luke 1:9). The only distinct precepts regarding the use of the censer are found in Leviticus 16:12 and in Numbers 4:14. Solomon prepared "censers of pure gold" as part of the temple furniture (1 Kings 7:50; 2 Chronicles 4:22). The word rendered "censer" in Hebrews 9:4 probably means the "altar of incense."
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
