Censer
        A small portable vessel of metal fitted to receive burning coals from the altar, and on which the incense for burning was sprinkled. 2Ch 26:19; Lu 1:9 The only distinct precepts regarding the use of the censer are found in Le 16:12 and in Nu 4:14 Solomon prepared "censers of pure gold" as part of the temple furniture. 1Ki 7:50; 2Ch 4:22 The word rendered "censer" in Heb 9:4 probably means the "altar of incense."
