Eles o trouxeram a Beth Haparvah [(Foi construída por um feiticeiro chamado Parvah e foi chamado pelo nome dele]], que estava em terreno sagrado. [Para esta segunda imersão e todas as outras, exceto a primeira terra sagrada exigida, viz. (Levítico 16:24): "E ele banhará sua carne na água em um lugar santo."] Eles espalharam uma folha de linho entre ele e o povo. Ele lavou as mãos e os pés e se despiu. R. Meir diz: Ele [primeiro] se despiu e [depois] lavou as mãos e os pés. [A halachá não está de acordo com R. Meir.] Ele desceu e imergiu, subiu e se secou. Eles trouxeram para ele roupas brancas [túnica, calças, cinto e mitra (Levítico 16: 4), que eram usadas para todos os serviços internos. E os serviços externos, como a (oferta de) temidin e mussafin, foram (realizados) em roupas de ouro, nas quais ele oficiou o ano inteiro. Entre cada mudança, ele exigia imersão e duas lavagens de mãos e pés da pia.] Ele as vestiu e lavou as mãos e os pés.

Bartenura on Mishnah Yoma
ובקודש היתה – that this second ritual immersion with all the rest of the ritual immersions, except for the first one, requires a sanctified place, as it is written (Leviticus 16:24): “He shall bathe his body in water in the holy precinct [and put on his vestments; then he shall come out and offer his burnt offering and the burnt offering of the people, making expiation for himself and for the people].”

They brought him to the Bet Haparvah, which was on holy ground. They spread a sheet of linen between him and the people. All of the day’s immersions except for the first one were done in a place called “Bet Haparvah” which was in the Temple courtyard (above, mishnah 3). As he prepares to strip in order to enter the mikveh, they again spread a linen sheet between him and the people.

ר"מ אומר – he first took off his clothing and afterwards sanctified [himself]. But the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Meir.

English Explanation of Mishnah Yoma
He sanctified his hands and his feet and stripped. Rabbi Meir says: he stripped [and then] sanctified his hands and his feet. According to the first opinion, he first sanctifies his hands and feet by washing them and then strips off the gold clothes that he has been wearing. According to this opinion, the sanctification is for the sake of the clothes which he is removing. Rabbi Meir, on the other hand, holds that the sanctification is for the clothes which he is going to put on. Therefore, he first strips off the golden garments and then he sanctifies his hands and feet.

Afterwards they brought him white garments. He put them on and sanctified his hands and his feet. Finally, he puts on the special white garments worn on Yom Kippur. They are “a sacral linen tunic, linen breeches, a linen sash and a linen turban” (Leviticus 16:4). After having put them on he sanctifies his feet and hands again by washing them. This sanctification is certainly in honor of the clothes that he is now putting on.
