Leviticus 21:22-24

Living Bible

²² However, he shall be fed with the food of the priests from the offerings sacrificed to God, both from the holy and most holy offerings. ²³ But he shall not go in behind the veil, nor come near the altar, because of the physical defect; this would defile my sanctuary, for it is Jehovah who sanctifies it.”

²⁴ So Moses gave these instructions to Aaron and his sons and to all the people of Israel.
