Leviticus 21:1-7

Matthew(i) 1 And the Lord said vnto Moses speake vnto the preastes the sonnes of Aaron and saye vnto them. A preast shal defile hym selfe at the deth of none of hys people, 2 but vpon his kynne that is nye vnto him: as his mother, father, sonne, daughter, & brother: 3 & on hys syster as longe as she is a mayde & dwelleth nye him & was neuer geuen to man: on her he may defyle him selfe. 4 But he shall not make hym selfe vncleane vpon a ruelar of hys people to polute hym selfe wyth all. 5 They shal make them no baldnesse vpon their heedes or shaue of the lockes of theyr beardes, nor make any markes in their flesh 6 They shal be holy vnto their God, and not polute the name of their God, for the sacrifices of the Lord and the bread of their God they do offer: therfore they must be holy. 7 They shall take no wyfe that is an whoore or poluted, or put from her husbande: for a preast is holy vnto his God.
