11. And he shall not go near any dead person, nor shall he make himself unclean for his father or for his mother.

13. “ ‘And he himself must take a wife in her virginity.
14. A widow or a divorced woman or a defiled woman, a prostitute—these he must not take; he shall take only a virgin from his people as wife.
15. And he shall not profane his offspring among his people, because I am Yahweh, who consecrates him.’ ”
16. Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
17. “Speak to Aaron, saying, ‘A man from your offspring throughout their generations, in whom is a physical defect, shall not come near to present your God’s food.
18. Indeed, any man in whom is a physical defect shall not come near: a blind man or lame or disfigured or deformed,
19. or a man in whom is a broken foot or a broken hand,
20. or a hunchback or a dwarf, or a spot in his eye or a skin disorder or a skin eruption or a crushed testicle.
21. Any man from Aaron the priest’s offspring in whom is a physical defect shall not come near to present offerings made by fire to Yahweh; a physical defect is in him; he shall not come near to present his God’s food.
