Holy of Holies (LDS)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Salt Lake Temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints contains a Holy of Holies wherein the church's President—acting as the Presiding High Priest—enters to fulfill the relationship between the High Priest of Israel and God in accordance with the LDS interpretation of the Book of Exodus (Exodus 25:22).[1]
Of the 124 temples operated by the LDS Church today, only the Salt Lake Temple has a Holy of Holies; previous to the completion of the Salt Lake Temple in 1893, the Manti Temple housed a Holy of Holies for the use of the President of the Church.
