In context

22Neither shall they take to themselves to wife a widow, or one that is put away, but a virgin of the seed of Israel: but if there should happen to be a priest’s widow, they shall take her.

23And they shall teach my people to distinguish between holy and profane, and they shall make known to them the difference between unclean and clean.

— Ezekiel 44:24 —

25And they shall not go in to the dead body of a man to defile themselves: only a priest may defile himself for a father, or for a mother, or for a son, or for a daughter, or for a brother, or for his sister, who has not been married.

26And after he has been cleansed, let him number to himself seven days.
