Человек не может войти в азару для служения [(не обязательно служения)], даже если он чист, не погружаясь, [это после fortiori, а именно: теперь, если первосвященник, который переходит от святости к святости — от внешнего служения к внутреннему служению и от внутреннего служения к внешнему служению (требует погружения) —тот, кто приходит из своего дома, от не святости к святости, сколько еще ему нужно погружаться!] В этот день первосвященник совершает пять погружений и десять побегов (Йом Кипур). И все (погружения) находятся в святости (т. Е. В микве) [лишко] Бет Парвы, за исключением этого, [первого (вход в азару), который был в чоль (не святости), у Водяных ворот, возле его лишков.

Bartenura on Mishnah Yoma
עד שיטבול – and the matters are [understood] via a conclusion a minori ad majus, for just as the second to the High Priest is sanctified for the Holy {Service], from the Divine Service outside to the Divine Service inside, and from the Service inside [the Temple] to the Divine Service outside, and which requires immersion between each Divine Service, the individual who comes from his house which is from the “secular” to the Holy, does he not all the more so require ritual immersion?

English Explanation of Mishnah Yoma
A man may not enter the Temple courtyard or to worship even if he was clean until he immerses himself. There are actually two requirements in this section. The first is that one may not enter into the Temple courtyard unless he first immerses himself in a mikveh. The second is that one who is already in the courtyard may not begin to perform the Temple service until he immerses himself.

English Explanation of Mishnah Yoma
Five immersions and ten sanctifications did the high priest perform on that day. The high priest will change his clothing from his normal priestly wear to special golden clothes and then back again five times during Yom Kippur. For each change he would need to sanctify his hands and feet by washing them, making a total of ten hand and feet-washings.

English Explanation of Mishnah Yoma
And all in sanctity in the Bet Haparvah with the exception of this one alone. All of these washings were done in an immersion pool which was on top of a chamber called the “Bet Haparvah”. The “Bet Haparvah” was within the Temple courtyard. The one exception was the first immersion which we learned about yesterday. Since this immersion was done before he began the service it was done outside of the Temple courtyard.
