Leviticus 21:21

Context
21:21 No man from the descendants of Aaron the priest who has a physical flaw may step forward 1  to present the Lord’s gifts; he has a physical flaw, so he must not step forward to present the food of his God.

Leviticus 22:13

Context
22:13 but if a priest’s daughter is a widow or divorced, and she has no children so that she returns to live in 2  her father’s house as in her youth, 3  she may eat from her father’s food, but no lay person may eat it.

1 tn Or “shall approach” (see HALOT 670 s.v. נגשׁ).

2 tn Heb “to”; the words “live in” have been supplied in the translation for clarity.

3 tn Heb “and seed there is not to her and she returns to the house of her father as her youth.” The mention of having “no children” appears to imply that her children, if she had any, should support her; this is made explicit by NLT’s “and has no children to support her.”
