Leviticus 21

¹¹ He must not go near any dead body; he must not defile himself, even for his father or mother.

¹² He must not leave or desecrate the sanctuary of his God, for the consecration of the anointing oil of his God is on him. I am the LORD.

¹³ The woman he marries must be a virgin.

¹⁴ He is not to marry a widow, a divorced woman, or one defiled by prostitution. He is to marry a virgin from his own people,

¹⁵ so that he does not defile his offspring among his people, for I am the LORD who sanctifies him.”
