Leviticus 22:8 in Context — Leviticus 22
6 Celui qui touchera ces choses sera impur jusqu’au soir; il ne mangera pas des choses saintes, mais il lavera son corps dans l’eau;
7 après le coucher du soleil, il sera pur, et il mangera ensuite des choses saintes, car c’est sa nourriture.
8 Il ne mangera point d’une bête morte ou déchirée, afin de ne pas se souiller par elle. Je suis l’Éternel.
9 Ils observeront mes commandements, de peur qu’ils ne portent la peine de leur péché et qu’ils ne meurent, pour avoir profané les choses saintes. Je suis l’Éternel, qui les sanctifie.
10 Aucun étranger ne mangera des choses saintes; celui qui demeure chez un sacrificateur et le mercenaire ne mangeront point des choses saintes.
