17 Speak unto Aaron, saying, Whosoever he be of thy seed in their generations that hath any blemish, let him not approach to offer the bread of his God.
18 For whatsoever man he be that hath a blemish, he shall not approach: a blind man, or a lame, or he that hath a flat nose, or any thing superfluous,
19 Or a man that is brokenfooted, or brokenhanded,
20 Or crookbackt, or a dwarf, or that hath a blemish in his eye, or be scurvy, or scabbed, or hath his stones broken;
I'm sure an explanation (read mind warping delusional backpeddling) will be along to point out how you've all interpreted this scripture wrong. "When it says 'not approach' it doesn't mean that god rejects them", "bread is a metaphor", "flat nose is not the correct translation from Hebrew it actually means 'son of devil'", blah blah etc blah.
Either that or you'll be directed to some other scripture that contradicts but takes precedence.
