Celui qui gagnait [le droit d'abattre] le tamid [offrande], le traînait et se rendait à la maison de l'abattage [la zone où les offrandes étaient abattues] et ceux qui gagnaient [le droit de placer] les membres marcheraient avec lui. La maison de l'abattage était au nord de l'autel et près d'elle il y avait huit petits piliers et des carrés de bois de cèdre étaient [chacun] d'entre eux et des crochets de fer y étaient insérés [les carrés]; il y avait trois ensembles [de crochets] pour chacun [bloc], auxquels ils accrocheraient [l'animal abattu]. L '[animal] serait écorché sur des tables en marbre qui se trouvaient entre les piliers.

English Explanation of Mishnah Tamid
The priest who had won the right to slaughter the tamid takes it along with him to the slaughter house, and those who had won the right to bring the limbs up followed after him. The priest who won the right to slaughter and the priests who will bring the various parts of the sacrifice onto the ramp leading up to the altar all go to the slaughter house.

English Explanation of Mishnah Tamid
The slaughter house was to the north of the altar, and on it were eight small pillars on top of which were blocks of cedar wood, in which were fixed hooks of iron, three rows in each, upon which they would hang [the tamid] and they would strip its hide on tables of marble that stood between the pillars. The mishnah describes the slaughterhouse, especially the hooks on which they would hang the meat after the tamid was slaughtered. It is also describes the tables upon which the meat would be washed. These processes will be described later in the mishnah.

Bartenura on Mishnah Tamid
על שלחנות של שיש שבין העמודים – for on them they would rinse the insides and it was possible to make them out of gold, for there is no poverty in the place of wealth/splendor, but they did not make them of anything other than marble because the gold shakes and smells bad, but the marble is cold and cools off and preserves it so that it does nor become putrid.
