Deuteronomy 14:6 in context

  1. 4These are the animals which you may eat: the ox, the sheep, the goat,
  2. 5the deer, the gazelle, the roebuck, the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope, and the chamois.
  3. 6Every animal that parts the hoof, and has the hoof split in two and chews the cud, among the animals, you may eat.
  4. 7Nevertheless these you shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of those who have the hoof split: the camel, the hare, and the rabbit. Because they chew the cud but don’t part the hoof, they are unclean to you.
  5. 8The pig, because it has a split hoof but doesn’t chew the cud, is unclean to you. You shall not eat their meat. You shall not touch their carcasses.
