13. He shall take a virgin as his wife.
14. But a widow, or one who has been repudiated or defiled, or also a mistress, he shall not accept, but only a maiden from among his own people.
15. He shall not mingle the stock of his family with the common people of his nation. For I am the Lord, who sanctifies him.
16. And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
17. Say to Aaron: A man from your offspring, throughout their families, who has a blemish, shall not offer the bread to his God.
18. Neither shall he approach to minister to him: if he is blind, if he is lame, if he is small, or large, or has a crooked nose,
19. if his foot or hand is broken,
20. if he has a bulging back or bleary eyes, or if he has a white spot in his eye, or a chronic scab, or a skin disease on his body, or a hernia.
21. Anyone from the offspring of Aaron, the priest, who has a blemish, shall not approach to offer sacrifices to the Lord, nor the bread to his God.
22. Nevertheless, he shall eat from the loaves which are offered in the Sanctuary.
