temple service
Sacred building ceremony
Temple service encompasses the rituals, ceremonies, and duties performed at a religious temple.
In Jewish contexts, it refers specifically to the sacrificial worship and priestly functions conducted at the Temple in Jerusalem before its destruction: The temple service required Levitical priests.
The term also applies to regular worship gatherings held in temples of various faiths: Temple service begins at sundown on Friday.
