Commentary for Beitzah 15:2

הבורר קטנית בי"ט בית שמאי אומרים בורר אוכל ואוכל וב"ה אומרים בורר כדרכו בחיקו ובתמחוי אבל לא בטבלה ולא בנפה ולא בכברה ר"ג אומר אף מדיח ושולה:

Said R. Mana: It is not reasonable [to have the ashes removed at midnight for Yom Kippur and at the first watch for the Festivals]. But [on] Yom Kippur fro the first watch and on the Festivals from midnight, so that they shall not come into the hands of thirst. Said R. Yochanan: The removal of the ashes is the beginning of the service of the morrow, and he must sanctify his hands and feet from the laver which was sunk in water.
