Primary Verses:
- Lev. 22:2-5
-
"Speak unto Aaron and to his
sons, that they separate themselves from the holy things
of the children of Israel, and that they profane not my
holy name in those things which they hallow unto me: I
am YHVH. Say unto them, Whosoever he be of all your
seed among your generations,
that goeth unto the holy things, which the
children of Israel hallow unto YHVH, having his
uncleanness upon him, that soul shall be cut off from my
presence: I am YHVH. What man soever of
the seed of Aaron is a leper, or hath a running issue;
he shall not eat of the holy things, until he be clean.
And whoso toucheth any thing that is unclean by the
dead, or a man whose seed goeth from him; Or whosoever
toucheth any creeping thing, whereby he may be made
unclean, or a man of whom he may take uncleanness,
whatsoever uncleanness he hath;"
Supporting Verses:
- Lev. 7:20-21
- "But the soul that eateth of the flesh of the
sacrifice of peace offerings, that pertain unto YHVH,
having his
uncleanness upon him, even that soul shall be cut off
from his people. Moreover the soul that
shall touch any unclean thing, as the uncleanness of
man, or any unclean beast, or any abominable unclean
thing, and eat of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace
offerings, which pertain unto YHVH, even that soul shall
be cut off from his people."
