Leviticus 22:2

²Speak unto Aaron and to his sons, that they separate themselves from the holy things of the children of Israel, which they hallow unto me, and that they profane not my holy name: I am Jehovah.

Leviticus 22 continues to delineate the stringent requirements for priests and the offerings they handle, emphasizing the holiness demanded of those who serve God. It details various conditions that would render a priest ritually unclean, preventing him from partaking in the holy food or performing sacred duties. The chapter also sets forth strict rules for the quality of animals presented as sacrifices, ensuring they are unblemished and acceptable to the Lord. This chapter underscores the pervasive theme of holiness, both in the people and in their worship, as a reflection of God's own character.
