Hi b-hebrew,

Soren

a tradition that the high priest on Yom Kippur was to wear a rope around
his ankle, so he could >> be hauled out if he was to die in the Holy of
Holies.
.. I seem to have contributed to keeping a baseless tall story alive: ...
Some pretty
knowledgeable people.... go out of their way to debunk it. apologies for
my gullibility

Schmuel
No apology necessary :-)
Who are some of these knowledgeable folks ?
Anybody from Aish or Orthodox circles ?

Liz Fried

I thought it was in Tractate Yoma but I can't seem to find it.


Rolf Furuli
The place is Yoma 6,2.

I don't see it, although I could check Soncino . or maybe I'm missing it.

A friend Craig posted on my email forum, saying it was otherwise an oral
tradition

The Zohar says:
"a cord was tied to feet of high priest before he entered the Holy of
Holies"
(Zohar V (on Vayikra), 102a)
