Leviticus 21:1-4 ▼

1 The LORD said to Moses: Speak to the priests, Aaron’s sons, and tell them: None of you shall make himself unclean for any dead person among his kindred,

2 except for his nearest relatives, his mother or father, his son or daughter, his brother

3 or his unmarried sister, who is of his own family while she remains single; for these he may make himself unclean.

4 But as a husband among his kindred he shall not make himself unclean and thus profane himself.
