Leviticus 21:13-15
Lev 21:13-14 He was only to marry a woman in her virginity, not a widow, a woman put away, or a fallen woman, a whore (זונה without a copulative is in apposition to חללה a fallen girl, who was to be the same to him as a whore), but “a virgin of his own people,” that is to say, only an Israelitish woman. Lev 21:15 “Neither shall he profane his seed (posterity) among his people,” sc., by contracting a marriage that was not in keeping with the holiness of his rank.
