Le 22:2
22:2 Speak unto Aaron and to his sons, that they {a} separate
     themselves from the holy things of the children of Israel,
     and that they profane not my holy name [in those things]
     which they hallow unto me: I [am] the LORD.

     (a) Meaning, that the priests abstain from eating, as long
         as they are polluted.

Le 22:3
22:3 Say unto them, Whosoever [he be] of all your seed among
     your generations, that {b} goeth unto the holy things,
     which the children of Israel hallow unto the LORD, having
     his uncleanness upon him, that soul shall be cut off from
     my presence: I [am] the LORD.

     (b) To eat of it.

Le 22:4
22:4 What man soever of the seed of Aaron [is] a leper, or hath
     a running issue; he shall not eat of the holy things, until
     he be clean.  And whoso toucheth any thing [that is] {c}
     unclean [by] the dead, or a man whose seed goeth from him;

     (c) By touching any dead thing, or being at burial of the
         dead.

Le 22:10
22:10 There shall no {d} stranger eat [of] the holy thing: a {e}
      sojourner of the priest, or an hired servant, shall not
      eat [of] the holy thing.

      (d) Which is not of the tribe of Levi.
      (e) Some read, the servant who had his ear bored, and
          would not go free, @Ex 21:6.

Le 22:12
22:12 If the priest's daughter also be [married] unto a {f}
      stranger, she may not eat of an offering of the holy
      things.

      (f) Who is not of the priests kindred.

Le 22:14
22:14 And if a man eat [of] the holy thing unwittingly, then he
      shall put the {g} fifth [part] thereof unto it, and shall
      give [it] unto the priest with the holy thing.

      (g) He shall give that and a fifth part over.

Le 22:16
22:16 Or suffer them to bear the iniquity of {h} trespass, when
      they eat their holy things: for I the LORD do sanctify
      them.

      (h) For if they did not offer sacrifice for their error,
          the people by their example might commit the same
          offence.

Le 22:25
22:25 Neither {i} from a stranger's hand shall ye offer the
      bread of your God of any of these; because their
      corruption [is] in them, [and] blemishes [be] in them:
      they shall not be accepted for you.

      (i) You shall not receive any imperfect thing from a
          stranger, to make it the Lord's offering: which he
          calls the bread of the Lord.

Le 22:32
22:32 Neither shall ye {k} profane my holy name; but I will be
      hallowed among the children of Israel: I [am] the LORD
      which hallow you,

      (k) For whoever does otherwise than God commands pollutes
          his Name.
