Holiness and the Priests
1And the Lord said to Moses, “Speak to the priests, the sons of Aaron, and say to them, aNo one shall make himself unclean for the dead among his people, 2except for his closest relatives, his mother, his father, his son, his daughter, his brother, 3or his virgin sister (who is near to him because she has had no husband; for her he may make himself unclean). 4He shall not make himself unclean as a husband among his people and so profane himself.John 11:33

39So Peter rose and went with them. And when he arrived, they took him to fthe upper room. All the widows stood beside him weeping and showing tunics ▼▼Greek chiton, a long garment worn under the cloak next to the skin
and other garments that Dorcas made while she was with them. 1 Thessalonians 4:13
