therefore: Leviticus 21:21-23, Numbers 3:10, Numbers 16:40, Numbers 18:7

were they, as polluted, put from the priesthood: Heb. they were polluted from the priesthood, Ezekiel 44:10-14

Reciprocal: Leviticus 21:15 - profane 1 Chronicles 9:1 - all Israel Ezra 8:1 - genealogy Nehemiah 7:5 - that Ezekiel 13:9 - neither shall they be

Gill's Notes on the Bible

These sought their register among those that were reckoned by genealogy,.... To find their names written and registered there; for the Jews kept public registers of their priests, their descent, marriages, and offspring, that it might be known who were fit, and who not, to officiate as such:

but they were not found; their names were not there, nor any account taken of them:

therefore were they, as polluted, put from the priesthood; were not suffered to attend at the altar, and offer sacrifice, and enjoy the privileges belonging to that office.
