***IN A NUTSHELL***
*Emor* focuses on two kinds of holiness: that of people and of time. Chapter 21 relates to holy people: priests, and above them, the high priest. Because the priests serve in the *Mishkan* (the portable Temple), there are certain things they are forbidden from doing. For example, they are not allowed to come into contact with a dead body, and they cannot marry whomever they like.
