CONTENTS

This Chapter hath a peculiar reference to the priesthood, and contains precepts by which they who ministered in holy things, were to be regulated in certain particulars. An ordinance is appointed, by which the priests that have blemishes are disqualified from the service of the sanctuary.

Leviticus 21:1

If the Reader will turn to Leviticus 10:10, he will there discover the LORD'S jealousy concerning the sanctity of the priesthood. And is it not under this, and every other precept respecting the priests, intended to typify the sanctity of him whom all priests taken from among men represent? Hebrews 7:26.
