Ezekiel 44:20 in Context — Ezekiel 44

18 Tiaras de lino tendrán en sus cabezas, y pañetes de lino en sus lomos: no se ceñirán para sudar.

19 Y cuando salieren al atrio de afuera, al atrio de afuera al pueblo, se desnudarán de sus vestimentas con que ministraron, y las dejarán en las cámaras del santuario, y se vestirán de otros vestidos: así no santificarán el pueblo con sus vestimentas.

20 Y no raparán su cabeza, ni dejarán crecer el cabello; sino que lo recortarán trasquilando sus cabezas.

21 Y ninguno de los sacerdotes beberá vino cuando hubieren de entrar en el atrio interior.

22 Ni viuda, ni repudiada se tomarán por mujeres; sino que tomarán vírgenes del linaje de la casa de Israel, ó viuda que fuere viuda de sacerdote.
