Leviticus 10 💬 📚 📜 📕 ↷
3 And Moyses said to Aaron: This is it which our Lord hath spoken: I will be sanctified in them, that approach to me, and in the sight of all the people I will be glorified. Which Aaron hearing held his peace.
4 And Moyses calling Misael and Elisaphan, the sons of Oziel, the uncle of Aaron, said to them: Go and take away your brethren from the sight of the Sanctuary, and carry them without the camp.
5 And going forthwith they took them as they lay, revested with linen tunics, and did cast them forth, as it had been commanded them.
6 And Moyses spake to Aaron, & to Eleazar, and Ithamar his sons: Uncover not your heads, and rent not your vestments, lest perhaps you die, & indignation come upon all the assembly. Let your brethren, & all the house of Israel, lament the burning that our Lord hath raised,
7 and your selves shall not go out of the door of the tabernacle, otherwise you shall perish: for the oil of holy unction is upon you. Who did all things according to the precept of Moyses.
Restrictions for Priests
8 Our Lord also said to Aaron:
9 Wine, and any thing that may make drunk, you shall not drink, thou and thy sons, when you enter into the tabernacle of testimony, lest you die: because it is an everlasting precept through your generations.
10 And that you may have knowledge to discern between the holy and profane, between the polluted and clean:
11 and may teach the children of Israel all my ordinances, which the Lord hath spoken to them by the hand of Moyses.
