Leviticus 22:4-7

4 1No man of the 2descendants of Aaron, who has 3leprosy or has a discharge, may eat of the holy gifts until he is clean. 4And one who touches anything made unclean by a corpse, or 5a man who has a seminal emission,

5or 6a man who touches any swarming things by which he is made unclean, or touches any person by whom he is made unclean, whatever his uncleanness;

6a 7person who touches any such thing shall be unclean until evening, and shall not eat of the holy gifts unless he has bathed his 8body in water.

7But when the sun sets, he will be clean, and afterward he may eat of the holy gifts, for 9it is his 10food.
