Bible Verses About The Dead: A priest not to mourn for, except when near of kin

And the Lord said vnto Moses, Speake vnto the Priestes the sonnes of Aaron, and say vnto them, Let none be defiled by the dead among his people,

But by his kinseman that is neere vnto him: to wit, by his mother, or by his father, or by his sonne, or by his daughter, or by his brother,

Or by his sister a maid, that is neere vnto him, which hath not had a husband: for her he may lament.
