Leviticus 11
11:2
Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These [are] the beasts which ye
a
shall eat among all the beasts that [are] on the earth.
(
a) Or, of which ye may eat.
11:3 Whatsoever parteth the
b
hoof, and is clovenfooted, [and] cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall
ye eat.
(
b) He notes four types of beasts, some that chew
the cud only, and some that only have the hoof cleft. Others neither chew the
cud, nor have the hoof cleft, and the fourth both chew the cud and have the
hoof divided, which may be eaten.
11:8
Of their
c flesh shall ye not eat, and
their carcase shall ye not touch; they [are] unclean to you.
(
c) God would that by this for a time they should
be discerned as his people from the Gentiles.
11:10 And all that have not
fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that
d
move in the waters, and of any
e living
thing which [is] in the waters, they [shall be] an abomination unto you:
(
d) As little fish begotten in the slime.
(
e) As they which come of generation.
11:22
[Even] these of them ye may eat; the locust after his kind, and the
f
bald locust after his kind, and the beetle after his kind, and the grasshopper
after his kind.
(
f) These were certain types of grasshoppers,
which are not now properly known.
11:25
And whosoever
g beareth [ought] of the
carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even.
(
g) Out of the camp.
11:29
These also [shall be] unclean unto you among the creeping things that creep upon
the earth; the weasel, and the mouse, and the
g
tortoise after his kind,
(
g) The green frog that sits on the bushes.
11:32
And upon whatsoever [any] of them, when they are dead, doth fall, it shall be
unclean; whether [it be] any vessel of wood, or raiment, or
i
skin, or sack, whatsoever vessel [it be], wherein [any] work is done, it must be
put into water, and it shall be unclean until the even; so it shall be cleansed.
(
i) As a bottle or bag.
11:36
Nevertheless a fountain or pit, [wherein there is] plenty of water, shall be
clean: but that which
k toucheth their
carcase shall be unclean.
(
k) So much of the water as touched it.
11:38 But if [any]
l
water be put upon the seed, and [any part] of their carcase fall thereon, it
[shall be] unclean unto you.
(
l) He speaks of seed that is laid to sleep
before it is sown.
11:44
For I [am] the LORD your God: ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye
shall be
m holy; for I [am] holy:
neither shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that
creepeth upon the earth.
(
m) He shows why God chose them to be his people,
(
1 Peter
1:15).
