Imamat 21:14-15

21:14 He must not marry ¹  a widow, a divorced woman, or one profaned by prostitution; he may only take a virgin from his people ²  as a wife. 21:15 He must not profane his children among his people, ³  for I am the Lord who sanctifies him.’”

[21:14]  ¹ tn Heb “take.” In context this means “take as wife,” i.e., “marry.”

[21:14]  ² tc The MT has literally, “from his peoples,” but Smr, LXX, Syriac, Targum, and Tg. Ps.-J. have “from his people,” referring to the Israelites as a whole.

[21:15]  ³ tc The MT has literally, “in his peoples,” but Smr, LXX, Syriac, Targum, and Tg. Ps.-J. have “in his people,” referring to the Israelites as a whole.
