Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 exclusively devoted to a deity or to some religious ceremony or use; holy; consecrated. 2 worthy of or regarded with reverence, awe, or respect.An altar cloth is used in the Christian liturgy to cover the altar. It is both a sign of awe as well as decoration and protection of the altar and the sacred vessels. ... Since the 2nd century the altar cloth has been seen as a symbol for the shroud of Jesus Christ; therefore it should be made of white linen.
