Letakkanlah meja itu di luar tabir, dan kandil di seberang meja itu, di sisi selatan Kemah Suci; meja itu harus kautaruh di sisi utara.
Mishneh Torah, The Chosen Temple
Vessels must be made for the Temple: An altar for burnt offerings and other sacrifices, and a ramp to access the altar; these are placed in front of the Hall slightly southward (of center). The basin and its base, which the priests use to wash their hands and feet for the service, are both placed between the altar and the Hall towards the south, on your left as you enter the sanctuary. A table, a (smaller) altar for incense, and a Menorah [are also necessary] and all three go in the sanctuary in front of the inner sanctum.
