| Positive Mitzvah Forty-Eight Yom Kippur Musaf-offering
We are commanded to offer a Musaf-offering on the 10th day of Tishri. The Musaf-offering here referred to was not considered part of the special service of the Day. Hence when presenting it the Kohen Gadol wore the customary eight golden robes, in which he was wore to perform the service in the Sanctuary throughout the whole year; but when presenting the special offerings for Yom Kippur, the Kohen Gadol was attired in the four linen robes specially prepared for that service. |
