Leviticus 21:5 Context
3And for his sister a virgin, that is nigh vnto him, which hath had no husband: for her may he be defiled. 4But hee shall not defile himselfe being a chiefe man among his people, to prophane himselfe. 5They shall not make baldnesse vpon their head, neither shall they shaue off the corner of their beard, nor make any cuttings in their flesh: 6They shalbe holy vnto their God, and not profane the name of their God: for the offrings of the Lord made by fire, and the bread of their God they doe offer: therefore they shall be holy. 7They shall not take a wife that is a whore, or profane, neither shall they take a woman put away from her husband: for he is holy vnto his God.
