They shall have linen mitres on their heads, and linen breeches on their loins, and they shall not be girded with any thing that causeth sweat.
19
And when they shall go forth to the outward court to the people, they shall put off their garments wherein they ministered, and lay them up in the store chamber of the sanctuary, and they shall clothe themselves with other garments: and they shall not sanctify the people with their vestments.
20
Neither shall they shave their heads, nor wear long hair: but they shall only poll their heads.
21
And no priest shall drink wine when he is to go into the inner court.
22
Neither shall they take to wife a widow, nor one that is divorced, but they shall take virgins of the seed of the house of Israel: but they may take a widow also, that is, the widow of a priest.
23
And they shall teach my people the difference between holy and profane, and shew them how to discern between clean and unclean.
24
And when there shall be a controversy, they shall stand in my judgments, and shall judge: they shall keep my laws, and my ordinances in all my solemnities, and sanctify my sabbaths.
25
And they shall come near no dead person, lest they be defiled, only their father and mother, and son and daughter, and brother and sister, that hath not had another husband: for whom they may become unclean.
26
And after one is cleansed, they shall reckon unto him seven days.
27
And in the day that he goeth into the sanctuary, to the inner court, to minister unto me in the sanctuary, he shall offer for his sin, saith the Lord God.
28
And they shall have no inheritance, I am their inheritance: neither shall you give them any possession in Israel, for I am their possession.
