Today’s daf is sponsored by Louis Polcin in honor of Rabbi Elisha Herb of Temple Beth Sholom. "Thank you for the support during my years in college, when you so selflessly welcomed me into your community. It has been an honor to learn from you and to daven alongside you. I am inspired by your deep sense of kavanah, your devotion to the local Jewish community and your love of Judaism. Thank you for introducing me to Talmud study and to Hadran."

How many types of gold are there? And how did each type get its name? The gemara demands the reason for other differences mentioned in the mishna between what was done daily and what was done on Yom Kippur. How many woodpiles were on the outer altar? There are three opinions and the gemara brings the drashot for each of the opinions, most of them from verses in Vakikra Chapter 6, verses 1-6. From where do we derive that the fire for the incense on Yom Kippur and for the Menora were brought from the outer altar? And where on the altar is the location for the woodpile for Yom  Kippur?
