Leviticus 21:9-11
The Voice
9 If a priest’s daughter dabbles in prostitution, then she desecrates herself and also her father. She is to be burned to death.
10 Of the brotherhood of priests, the high priest is the one whose head has been anointed with oil and who has been ordained to wear the sacred garments. He is not to leave his hair uncombed or tear his garments when he is mourning. 11 He is not to go near any dead bodies—not even his father’s or mother’s—or else he will make himself impure.
Leviticus 21:9-11
