What happensPermalink
Special cleanliness rules for priests. Some things that make others unclean are prohibited for priests. The high priest has even greater prohibitions.
Why it mattersPermalink
Priests must maintain holiness not only in their lives but in their appearance and their relationships. They must be whole, they must not even appear to follow pagan rites, and their wives must be upright.
Key versePermalink
“You shall sanctify him, for he offers the bread of your God. He shall be holy to you, for I, the Lord, who sanctify you, am holy.”
