Regulations for Priestly Conduct

And the Lord spake vnto Aaron, saying,

Thou shalt not drinke wine nor strong drinke, thou, nor thy sonnes with thee, when yee come into the Tabernacle of the Congregation, lest ye die: this is an ordinance for euer throughout your generations,
10
That ye may put difference betweene the holy and the vnholy, and betweene the cleane and the vncleane,
11
And that ye may teach the children of Israel all the statutes which the Lord hath commanded them by the hand of Moses.
