Leviticus 21:21-23

The Voice

²¹ No one from Aaron’s offspring who has a physical defect is allowed to approach the sanctuary and present fire-offerings to Me; since he is not perfect, he must not approach to offer his God’s food. ²² He is allowed to eat a portion of the food offered to God, including the sacred and most sacred, ²³ but he is not allowed to go behind the veil or approach the altar because of his imperfection. This is the rule so that he does not desecrate My holy places. I am the Eternal One who consecrates him.
