Regulations concerning Priests

1 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Speak to the priests, the sons of Aaron, and say to them:(A)No one shall defile himself for a dead person among his people, 2 (B)except for his relatives who are nearest to him, his mother and his father and his son and his daughter and his brother, 3 also for his virgin sister, who is near to him (a)because she has had no husband; for her he may defile himself.
