Audio Bible Context Clean and Unclean Animals…4These are the animals that you may eat: The ox, the sheep, the goat, 5the deer, the gazelle, the roe deer, the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope, and the mountain sheep. 6You may eat any animal that has a split hoof divided in two and that chews the cud.… Cross References Leviticus 11:1-47 The LORD spoke again to Moses and Aaron, telling them, / “Say to the Israelites, ‘Of all the beasts of the earth, these ones you may eat: / You may eat any animal that has a split hoof completely divided and that chews the cud. ... Acts 10:12-15 It contained all kinds of four-footed animals and reptiles of the earth, as well as birds of the air. / Then a voice said to him: “Get up, Peter, kill and eat!” / “No, Lord!” Peter answered. “I have never eaten anything impure or unclean.” ... Genesis 7:2-3 You are to take with you seven pairs of every kind of clean animal, a male and its mate; a pair of every kind of unclean animal, a male and its mate; / and seven pairs of every kind of bird of the air, male and female, to preserve their offspring on the face of all the earth. Mark 7:18-19 “Are you still so dull?” He asked. “Do you not understand? Nothing that enters a man from the outside can defile him, / because it does not enter his heart, but it goes into the stomach and then is eliminated.” (Thus all foods are clean.) Romans 14:14 I am convinced and fully persuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself. But if anyone regards something as unclean, then for him it is unclean. 1 Timothy 4:4-5 For every creation of God is good, and nothing that is received with thanksgiving should be rejected, / because it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer. Genesis 9:3-4 Everything that lives and moves will be food for you; just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you all things. / But you must not eat meat with its lifeblood still in it. Isaiah 66:17 “Those who consecrate and purify themselves to enter the groves—to follow one in the center of those who eat the flesh of swine and vermin and rats—will perish together,” declares the LORD. Ezekiel 4:14 “Ah, Lord GOD,” I said, “I have never defiled myself. From my youth until now I have not eaten anything found dead or mauled by wild beasts. No unclean meat has ever entered my mouth.” Matthew 15:11 A man is not defiled by what enters his mouth, but by what comes out of it.” 1 Corinthians 10:25-26 Eat anything sold in the meat market without raising questions of conscience, / for, “The earth is the Lord’s, and the fullness thereof.” Colossians 2:16-17 Therefore let no one judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a feast, a New Moon, or a Sabbath. / These are a shadow of the things to come, but the body that casts it belongs to Christ. Hebrews 9:10 They consist only in food and drink and special washings—external regulations imposed until the time of reform. Acts 15:28-29 It seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us not to burden you with anything beyond these essential requirements: / You must abstain from food sacrificed to idols, from blood, from the meat of strangled animals, and from sexual immorality. You will do well to avoid these things. Farewell. Romans 14:20 Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All food is clean, but it is wrong for a man to let his eating be a stumbling block.

The third year's tithe of alms and charity the deer The deer is a clean animal according to the dietary laws given to the Israelites. Deer were common in the ancient Near East and were often associated with grace and swiftness. In biblical symbolism, the deer is sometimes used to represent longing for God, as seen in Psalm 42:1, "As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, my God." the gazelle the roe deer the wild goat the ibex the antelope and the mountain sheep Persons / Places / Events 1. MosesThe author of Deuteronomy, who is delivering God's laws to the Israelites. 2. Israelites The chosen people of God, receiving instructions on dietary laws as they prepare to enter the Promised Land. 3. Promised Land The land of Canaan, which God promised to the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. 4. Clean Animals Specific animals listed in the dietary laws that the Israelites are permitted to eat. 5. Wilderness Journey The context in which these laws are given, as the Israelites are transitioning from their nomadic life to settling in the Promised Land. Teaching Points Understanding God's HolinessThe dietary laws reflect God's holiness and the call for His people to be set apart. As Christians, we are called to live lives that reflect God's holiness in all areas, including our choices and actions. Obedience and Trust The Israelites were called to trust and obey God's commands, even when they might not fully understand them. Similarly, we are called to trust God's wisdom and guidance in our lives. Symbolism of Purity The distinction between clean and unclean animals symbolizes the need for spiritual purity. We should strive for purity in our thoughts, words, and deeds, seeking to honor God in all we do. Freedom in Christ While the Old Testament laws served a purpose for Israel, in Christ, we have freedom. This freedom should be exercised with love and consideration for others, avoiding legalism while pursuing holiness. Cultural Context and Application Understanding the cultural and historical context of these laws helps us apply biblical principles to our lives today, recognizing the timeless truths of God's Word.(5) The wild goat.--In German the "Steinbock" is given as the equivalent for this creature. The pygarg (dishon) is sometimes taken to be the buffalo. If all these creatures were then to be found in Palestine, there must have been far more uncleared land than there has been for many centuries past.Verse 5. - The hart; ayyal (אַיָּל), probably the fallow deer, or deer generally.
