Bible Verses About Birds: Appointed for food

The fear and dread of you will fall on every living creature on the earth, every bird of the air, every creature that crawls on the ground, and all the fish of the sea. They are delivered into your hand.

Everything that lives and moves will be food for you; just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you all things.

You may eat any clean bird,

but these you may not eat: the eagle, the bearded vulture, the black vulture,

the red kite, the falcon, any kind of kite,

any kind of raven,

the ostrich, the screech owl, the gull, any kind of hawk,

the little owl, the great owl, the white owl,

the desert owl, the osprey, the cormorant,

the stork, any kind of heron, the hoopoe, or the bat.

All flying insects are unclean for you; they may not be eaten.

But you may eat any clean bird.
