He that is the high priest
among his brethren upon whose head the anointing oil was poured
and whose hand was filled to put on the vestments, shall not
uncover his head nor rent his clothes, neither shall go to any
dead body nor make himself unclean: no not on his father or
mother, neither shall go out of the sanctuary, that he pollute not
the holy place of his God, for the crown of the anointing oil of
God, is upon him. I am the LORD. He shall take a maiden unto his
wife: but no widow nor divorced nor polluted whore. But he shall
take a maiden of his own people to wife, that he defile not his
seed upon his people. For I am the LORD which sanctify him. And
the LORD spake unto Moses saying, speak unto Aaron and say: No man
of thy seed in their generations that hath any deformity upon him,
shall prease for to offer the bread of his God: For none that hath
any blemish shall come near: whether he be blind, lame,
snoutnosed, or that hath any monstrous member, or broken footed,
or broken handed, or crook backed, or perleyed, or goggle eyed, or
mangy or skald, or hath his stones broken. No man that is deformed
of the seed of Aaron the priest, shall come nye to offer the
sacrifices of the LORD. If he have a deformity, he shall not prese
to offer the bread of his God.
