Leviticus16:17
17 And there shall be no man in the tabernacle of the congregation , when he goeth in to make an atonement in the holy place, untill he come out, and have made an atonement for himself, and for his houshold, and for all the congregation of Israel.
(i. e.) In the holy place, where the Priests and Levites were at other times. This was commanded for the greater reverence to the Divine Maiesty then in a more special manner appearing, and that none of them might cast an eye into the Holy of holies, as the High-priest went in or came out.
