Hekhal
The Hekhal, also known as the Sanctuary or Holy, was the part of Tabernacle and Temple in Jerusalem between the outer alter, where most sacrifices were performed, and the Holy of Holies originally containing the Ark of the Covenant. The Hekhal contained a number of sacred ritual objects including the Menorah, the inner alter for incense offerings, and the Table of the Showbread.
