Who May Eat the Holy Offerings?

Leviticus 22:10-16
10
No one outside a priest’s family may eat the sacred offering, nor may the guest of a priest or his hired hand eat it.
11
But if a priest buys a slave with his own money, or if a slave is born in his household, that slave may eat his food.
12
If the priest’s daughter is married to a man other than a priest, she is not to eat of the sacred contributions.
13
But if a priest’s daughter with no children becomes widowed or divorced and returns to her father’s house, she may share her father’s food as in her youth. But no outsider may share it.
14
If anyone eats a sacred offering in error, he must add a fifth to its value and give the sacred offering to the priest.
15
The priests must not profane the sacred offerings that the Israelites present to the LORD
16
by allowing the people to eat the sacred offerings and thus to bear the punishment for guilt. For I am the LORD who sanctifies them.”
