Leviticus 21:2

Revised Version with Apocrypha 1895

except for his kin, that is near unto him, for his mother, and for his father, and for his son, and for his daughter, and for his brother;

See the chapter Copy

None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover their nakedness: I am the LORD.

neither shall he go in to any dead body, nor defile himself for his father, or for his mother;

and for his sister a virgin, that is near unto him, which hath had no husband, for her may he defile himself.

But we would not have you ignorant, brethren, concerning them that fall asleep; that ye sorrow not, even as the rest, which have no hope.
