Leviticus [Pertaining to Levites] 21:16-23

¹⁶Adonai spoke to Moses Drawn out, saying,

¹⁷“Say to Aaron Light-bringer, ‘None of your offspring throughout their generations who has a defect may approach to offer the bread of his God.

¹⁸For whatever man he is that has a defect, he shall not draw near: a blind man, or a lame, or he who has a flat nose, or any deformity,

¹⁹or a man who has an injured foot, or an injured hand,

²⁰or hunchbacked, or a dwarf, or one who has a defect in his eye, or an itching disease, or scabs, or who has damaged testicles.

²¹No man of the offspring of Aaron Light-bringer the priest who has a defect shall come near to offer the offerings of Adonai made by fire. Since he has a defect, he shall not come near to offer the bread of his God.

²²He shall eat the bread of his God, both of the most holy, and of the holy.

²³He shall not come near to the veil, nor come near to the altar, because he has a defect; that he may not profane my sanctuaries, for I am Yahweh M'Kaddesham Yahweh our Santifier / He sustains breathing who makes them holy.’”
