Do Karaites bring sacrifices today?

0

Karaites do not bring sacrifices today in the absence of the Temple. Even those sacrifices which can be offered outside the Temple, such as the Passover sacrifice, can not be brought today because most people are Tame Met (ritually impure from coming into contact with a dead body or grave). In order, to bring the Passover sacrifice we will need to perform the ceremony of purification through the ashes of the Red Heifer which entails certain technical difficulties which we are working to overcome (see Nu 19,1-22). Specifically, we need two Kohanim who have never come into contact with a dead body or a grave and who can prove their lineage (see Ezra 2,61-63). Any Kohanim who can prove their genealogy as described in the aforementioned Biblical passage are asked to contact us (even if they have come into contact with dead bodies or graves).
