Leviticus 21:16-24

16And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 17Speak to Aaron, saying, None of your offspring throughout their generations who has a blemish may aapproach to offer the bread of his God. 18For no one who has a blemish shall draw near, a man bblind or lame, or one who has a mutilated face cor a limb too long, 19or a man who has an injured foot or an injured hand, 20or a hunchback or a dwarf or a man with a ddefect in his sight or an itching disease or scabs or ecrushed testicles. 21No man of the offspring of Aaron the priest who has a blemish shall come near to foffer the Lord’s food offerings; since he has a blemish, he shall not come near to offer the bread of his God. 22He may eat the bread of his God, both of gthe most holy and of the hholy things, 23but he shall not go through the veil or approach the altar, because he has a blemish, that he may not iprofane my sanctuaries, jfor I am the Lord who sanctifies them.” 24So Moses spoke to Aaron and to his sons and to all the people of Israel.
