Rules regarding the Sanctuary

  1. One Korban [bread] is to be taken into the Sanctuary for its sanctification in the Divine Liturgy, and no other [Korban] is to be taken into the Sanctuary.
  2. The Korban plate containing all the Korban of the lambs must not be placed on the Altar, but rather only 1 Korban is to be placed on the altar in the paten.
  3. After the selection of the lamb, the remaining Korban is not to be stored in the Sanctuary, but in the pews of the Deacons, for example.
  4. Only the Servants of the Altar shall enter into the Sanctuary. Even those who wish to take photographs [from within the Sanctuary] are required to be Deacons donning the service clothes (therefore no male or female laypersons are permitted to enter the Sanctuary).
