SEV Biblia, Chapter 21:21
Ningún varón de la simiente de Aarón sacerdote, en el cual hubiere falta, se acercará para ofrecer las ofrendas encendidas del SEÑOR. Hay falta en él; no se acercará a ofrecer el pan de su Dios.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 21. No man that hath a blemish, of the seed of Aaron the priest , etc.] Whether an high priest or a common priest that lies on him anyone of the above blemishes; and which the Jewish writers make to amount to the number of one hundred and forty, and which they reckon, so many in one part of the booty and so many in another, till they make up the said number; and whoever had any might not come nigh to offer up the sacrifices of the Lord made by fire ; the burnt offerings on the altar, to which he might not approach, and the meat offerings, and the fat, and the incense: he hath a blemish ; in one part of him or another; and though but one, he shall not come nigh to offer the bread of his God : this is repeated for the confirmation of it, and to show how determined the Lord was in this matter; and how much he should resent it in any that should be found guilty of the breach of those rules, and so it is designed to deter from attempting: it.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Laws concerning the priests. --As these priests were types of Christ, so all ministers must be followers of him, that their example may teach others to imitate the Saviour. Without blemish, and separate from sinners, He executed his priestly office on earth. What manner of persons then should his ministers be! But all are, if Christians, spiritual priests; the minister especially is called to set a good example, that the people may follow it. Our bodily infirmities, blessed be God, cannot now shu us out from his service, from these privileges, or from his heavenl glory. Many a healthful, beautiful soul is lodged in a feeble, deforme body. And those who may not be suited for the work of the ministry, ma serve God with comfort in other duties in his church __________________________________________________________________
