Levitico 21:19 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 21:19

Or a man that is brokenfooted or brokenhanded.
] That has any of the bones or joints in his hands and feet broke, or when they are distorted, and he is clubfooted, or his fingers crooked and clustered together; and such a man could not be fit to ascend the altar, and lay the sacrifice in order upon it; and may be an emblem of such as are awkward or disorderly in their walk and conservation, and to every good work and action unfit, and so unfit for their master's use.

Levitico 21:19 In-Context

17 Parla ad Aaronne, e digli: Se alcuno della tua progenie, per le loro età, ha in sè alcun difetto, non s’appressi per offerir le vivande dell’Iddio suo.
18 Perciocchè niun uomo, in cui sia difetto, vi si deve appressare; nè il cieco, nè lo zoppo, nè colui che ha il naso schiacciato, o smisurato.
19 Nè colui che ha rottura nel piè, o rottura nella mano.
20 Nè il gobbo, nè colui che ha panno o albugine nell’occhio, nè colui che ha scabbia, o volatica; nè l’ernioso.
21 Niun uomo adunque, della progenie del Sacerdote Aaronne, in cui sia alcun difetto, s’appressi per offerire i sacrificii fatti per fuoco al Signore; vi è difetto in lui; perciò, non si appressi per offerir le vivande dell’Iddio suo.
