a censer or incense burner used in ritual worship
This feminine noun denotes a censer, the implement for burning incense in worship. It appears in 2 Chronicles 26:19, where King Uzziah holds a censer to burn incense unlawfully in the temple, and in Ezekiel 8:11, where seventy elders stand before idolatrous imagery, 'each with his censer in his hand,' creating a thick cloud of incense. Both contexts involve irregular or illegitimate incense burning. The censer was normally a priestly tool; Uzziah's presumption in taking it triggered his leprosy, while the elders' use represents syncretistic worship condemned by the prophet.
Sentidos
1. sense 1 — A censer or incense burner, the vessel for holding burning coals and incense. Uzziah's censer becomes an instrument of transgression when the king usurps priestly prerogative; leprosy breaks out 'while he had the censer in his hand.' Ezekiel's vision shows misuse from the opposite direction: authorized priests or elders deploy censers for idolatrous worship within the temple precincts. The Spanish 'incensario' and French 'encensoir' name this liturgical tool, which symbolizes both legitimate worship (when properly used) and sacrilege (when misappropriated). 2×
