Leviticus
Leviticus 10:6
6Then Moses said to Aaron and his sons Eleazar and Ithamar, “Do not let your hair become disheveledc and do not tear your garments, or else you will die, and the LORD will be angry with the whole congregation. But your brothers, the whole house of Israel, may mourn on account of the fire that the LORD has ignited.
