Leviticus 21:18-21

181For no one who has a defect shall approach: a blind man, or a lame man, or he who has a 23disfigured face, or any deformed limb,

19or a man who has a broken foot or broken hand,

20or a hunchback or a dwarf, or one who has a 4defect in his eye or eczema or scabs or 5crushed testicles.

21No man among the 6descendants of Aaron the priest who has a defect is to come near to offer the Lord’s offerings by fire; since he has a defect, he shall not come near to offer 7the food of his God.
