1 God spoke to Moses: “Tell the priests, Aaron’s sons: Do not touch a dead body from your people. It makes you not clean.” ️✋⚰️ 2 But a priest may touch the body for close family: mom, dad, son, daughter, or brother. ❤️ 3 He may do this for his sister who is not married and stays with him. 4 But a priest must not make himself not clean for others. He must be careful. ⚠️♂️ 5 Priests must not shave their head, trim beard in a bad way, or cut their skin. ♂️✂️ 6 They must be holy to God. Do not make God’s name look bad. They bring food gifts to God, so they must be holy. ✨ 7 A priest must not marry a woman who acts in a very bad way with men, or a woman sent away by her man. He is holy. ♂️ 8 You must keep the priest special, because he brings food to Me. I am the LORD. I make you special. ✨ 9 If a priest’s girl does a very bad thing with men, she shames her dad. People will burn her with fire. 10 The big priest, with special oil on his head and special clothes, must not mess his hair or rip his clothes. ♂️ 11 He must not go near any dead body, not even for his mom or dad. ⚰️ 12 He must not leave God’s tent or make it not clean, because the special oil is on him. I am the LORD. ⛺️ 13 He must marry a young woman who has not been with a man. 14 He must not marry a woman whose man died, or a woman sent away by her man, or a woman who did very bad things. He must marry a young woman from his people. ♂️✅ 15 He must keep his children clean. I am the LORD. I make him holy. ✨ 16 The LORD spoke to Moses again. ️ 17 “Tell Aaron: If any son has a body hurt, he must not bring food gifts to God.” 18 “No man with a body hurt may come near: if he is blind, cannot walk well, or if face or body is not shaped right.” ♂️❌️❌ 19 “Or if he has a broken foot or a broken hand.” ❌❌ 20 “Or a bent back, very short, a bad eye, sores on skin, or private parts hurt.” ♂️↩️️❌ 21 “A priest with a body hurt must not bring food gifts to Me. He must not come near to give the food gifts.” ⛔ 22 “He may eat the holy food, the very holy and the holy.” ✅ 23 “But he must not go behind the curtain or near God’s big table. He must not make the holy place not clean. I am the LORD. I make them holy.” ⛺️ 24 Moses told Aaron, his sons, and all Israel these rules.
