Chapter 1, Mishna 1 Sequestration of the high priest applies to original Inauguration and Yom Kippur, to the exclusion of the pilgrimage Festivals and Rosh Hashanah. Does the High Priest bring his calf offering from the nation’s property or his own? Did Moses provide the wood for the Ark of the Covenant from his own property? Is the sequestration of the High Priest due to the fact that he must be in a guaranteed state of ritual purity, or is it based on his spiritual preparation for his encounter with the Divine Presence in the Holy of Holies?
