tabernacles (liturgical containers) (liturgical containers, ceremonial containers, ... Furnishings and Equipment (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Receptacles used in religious contexts that are considered in essence the dwelling-place of the deity, intended literally or symbolically. In Christian contexts, tabernacles often have an architectural character and are located near the high altar of a church, set into the wall or free-standing; their purpose is to hold the consecrated Host. The term is derived from Latin, meaning a small dwelling. |
