Ezekiel 44:22-24

Evangelical Heritage Version

²² The priests must not take a widow or a divorced woman for themselves as a wife, but only virgins who are seed from the house of Israel. But priests may marry a widow who is a widow of a priest. ²³ They are to teach my people the difference between the holy and the common, and make them knowledgeable in distinguishing the unclean from the clean.

²⁴ In case of a dispute, they are to officiate as judges, and they must render their judgment concerning that case on the basis of the precedents in my judgments. They must observe my instructions and my regulations regarding all my appointed festivals, and they must keep my Sabbaths holy.
