Several links of the four chains represent the saints, prophets and emissaries who led the people of God. The coal in the censer denotes the sinners and the fire signifies the Holy Spirit by whose contact the sinners get purified. The incense shows the grace of the Holy Trinity and cleansing of sins. As the smoke goes up so as our prayers should go high. The lower cup is also considered the womb of St. Mary where God the fire indwelled without burning as in the case of the burning bush (Exodus 3:2,3).

M’sone (Shoes): During the celebration of the Holy Qurbono, priests wear a pair of ceremonial shoes called M’sone.

A

(Any THREE)
Thronos (Altar Table): Thronos which means ‘throne’ is located at the centre of the sanctuary representing the ‘tomb of Christ’. It is often referred to as the ‘Table of Life’ because the bread of life is placed on it. It is also called the ‘Tomb of the glorified Lord’ as the bread and wine placed upon it are transformed into the Body and Blood of our resurrected Lord.
Tablaitho (Tablet): A piece of wooden slab placed at the centre of the Thronos symbolizes the
cross of Jesus; and it is called ‘temporary altar’ where the Chalice and Paten are placed during Holy Qurbono. On one hand Holy Qurbono can be celebrated anywhere with Tabliatho, and on the other hand Holy Qurbono cannot be celebrated without it.
Virikoottam (Tricolour spread): This is a rectangular piece of cloth covering the Tablaitho. It s made of red, green and white/yellow coloured clothes representing the universe, the world, and the Holy Church respectively.
Kablana (M’Kablono/Cover): The two square shaped cloths called Kablana are used to cover the Chalice and Paten when they are not covered by the Shushefo. They symbolises the shroud that covered the body of Christ, and prefigured by the clouds that covered the Tent in the desert
during the plight of the Israelites from Egypt (Exodus 40:34).
Tharvodo (Spoon): The small spoon used to administer the Holy Qurbono from the Chalice represents the tongs which the angel used in giving the glowing coal to the mouth of prophet Isaiah in his vision (Isaiah 6:6,7).
Shushefo (Veil): The white veil used to cover the Paten and Chalice signifies the fact that the
Divine Mysteries are hidden from human understanding. It also symbolises the stone rolled over the Tomb of Christ and the rock of flint which sent forth twelve streams of water for the twelve tribes of Israel (Numbers 20: 2-11).
