(, machtah’, from , , to take up coals of fire, etc.; Sept. ,Vulg. ignium receptaculum), one of the vessels of the Temple service (Exo 27:3; Exo 38:3; 2Ki 25:15; Jer 52:19); elsewhere rendered “snuff-dish” (Exo 25:38; Exo 37:23; Num 4:9; Sept. , , , Vulg. emunctorium) and “censer” (Lev 10:1; Lev 16:12; Num 16:6 sq.; 2Ch 4:22; Sept. , Vulg. thuribalum). These appear, however, not to have been two or three forms of utensils, but essentially the same kind of article, probably i. q. a’ metallic- cinder-basin, of different sizes, for at least two uses’: one, like a chafing-dish, to carry live coals for the purpose of burning incense; another, like-a snuffer-dish, used in trimming the lamps, in order to (carry the snuffers and) convey away the snuff. SEE CENSER.<\/p>\n
(Ex. 27:3<\/span>; 38:3<\/span>), one of the vessels of the temple service (rendered “snuff-dish” Ex. 25:38<\/span>; 37:23<\/span>; and “censer” Lev. 10:1<\/span>; 16:12<\/span>). It was probably a metallic cinder-basin used for the purpose of carrying live coal for burning incense, and of carrying away the snuff in trimming the lamps.<\/p>\n FIREPAN.1. A pan of bronze (Exo 27:3 etc.), silver (Mishna, Yma, iv. 4), or gold (1Ki 7:50 etc.), for removing charcoal, and probably ashes also, from the altar of burnt-offering. According to the Mishna (loc. cit.), the firepans or coal-pans were of various sizes, there given, and were each furnished with a long or a short handle. They seem, therefore, to have resembled ladies, or the now obsolete bed-warmers.<\/p>\n When used to hold live charcoal for the burning of incense the coal-pan becomes a censer (Lev 10:1; Lev 16:12 etc.). Hence in Num 4:14, 1Ki 7:50, 2Ch 4:22, RV [Note: Revised Version.] has firepans for AV [Note: Authorized Version.] censers, there being no reference in these passages to incense. The same utensil was used for removing the burnt portions of the lamp-wicks of the golden candlestick or lamp-stand, although rendered snuff dishes (which seeTindale has rightly firepans).<\/p>\n 2. In Zec 12:6 RV [Note: Revised Version.] there is mention of a pan (AV [Note: Authorized Version.] hearth) of fire; in other words, a brasier. See Coal; House, 7.<\/p>\n A. R. S. Kennedy.<\/p>\n frpan (, mahtah, firepan, censer, snuffdish, from , hathah, to snatch up): A vessel for carrying coals. Brazen firepans were part of the furnishings of the altar of burnt offerings (Exo 27:3; Exo 38:3, and in Num 4:14, where the King James Version wrongly reads censers, the context indicating a vessel belonging to the brazen altar).<\/p>\n The same word is translated snuffdishes in Exo 25:38; Exo 37:23; Num 4:9, where it refers to golden firepans which belonged to the golden candlestick or lamp stand, and were used to receive the burnt ends of the wicks. In 1Ki 7:50 and 2Ch 4:22, although the King James Version reads censers, the context points to the firepans belonging to the candlestick; as also in 2Ki 25:15 and Jer 52:19, translated firepans in the King James Version and the Revised Version (British and American). A similar firepan designated by the same Hebrew word but translated censer was used to carry the burning coals upon which the incense was thrown and burned (Lev 10:1; Lev 16:12; Num 16:6, Num 16:17). See CENSER.<\/p>\n The firepan or censer of the Hebrews was doubtless similar to the censer of the Egyptians, pictures of which have been found. It consisted of a pan or pot for the coals, which was held by a straight or slightly curved long handle. The style of censer used in recent centuries, swung by three chains, came into use about the 12th century ad.<\/p>\n Exo 38:3<\/span> 2Ki 25:15<\/span> <\/p>\n Firepan. One of the vessels of the Temple service. Exo 27:3; Exo 38:3; 2Ki 25:15; Jer 52:19.
