Laws of Clean and Unclean Foods
Deuteronomy 14:3-21
3
`Thou dost not eat any abominable thing;
4
`this is the beast which ye do eat: ox, lamb of the sheep, or kid of the goats,
5
hart, and roe, and fallow deer, and wild goat, and pygarg, and wild ox, and chamois;
6
and every beast dividing the hoof, and cleaving the cleft into two hoofs, bringing up the cud, among the beasts--it ye do eat.
7
`Only, this ye do not eat, of those bringing up the cud, and of those dividing the cloven hoof: the camel, and the hare, and the rabbit, for they are bringing up the cud but the hoof have not divided; unclean they are to you;
8
and the sow, for it is dividing the hoof, and not bringing up the cud, unclean it is to you; of their flesh ye do not eat, and against their carcase ye do not come.
9
`This ye do eat of all that are in the waters; all that hath fins and scales ye do eat;
10
and anything which hath not fins and scales ye do not eat; unclean it is to you.
11
`Any clean bird ye do eat;
12
and these are they of which ye do not eat: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,
13
and the glede, and the kite, and the vulture after its kind,
14
and every raven after its kind;
15
and the owl, and the night-hawk, and the cuckoo, and the hawk after its kind;
16
the little owl, and the great owl, and the swan,
17
and the pelican, and the gier-eagle, and the cormorant,
18
and the stork, and the heron after its kind, and the lapwing, and the bat;
19
and every teeming thing which is flying, unclean it is to you; they are not eaten;
20
any clean fowl ye do eat.
21
`Ye do not eat of any carcase; to the sojourner who is within thy gates thou dost give it, and he hath eaten it; or sell it to a stranger; for a holy people thou art to Jehovah thy God; thou dost not boil a kid in its mother's milk.
