1 The LORD spoke to Moses after the death of Aaron's two sons when they approached the presence of the LORD and died, 2 and the LORD said to Moses: |Tell Aaron your brother that he must not enter at any time into the holy place inside the veil-canopy in front of the atonement plate that is on the ark so that he may not die, for I will appear in the cloud over the atonement plate. 3 In this way Aaron is to enter into the sanctuary--with a young bull for a sin offering and a ram for a burnt offering. 4 He must put on a holy linen tunic, linen leggings are to cover his body, and he is to wrap himself with a linen sash and wrap his head with a linen turban. They are holy garments, so he must bathe his body in water and put them on. Leviticus 16:1-4, New English Translation. Copyright © 1996-2017 by Biblical Studies Press.
