Leviticus 11:1, 4, 41-44

The LORD said to Moses and Aaron

“ ‘Some animals only chew the cud or only have split hoofs, and you must not eat them. The camel chews the cud but does not have a split hoof; it is unclean for you.

“ ‘Every animal that crawls on the ground is to be hated; it must not be eaten. You must not eat any of the animals that crawl on the ground, including those that crawl on their stomachs, that walk on all four feet, or on many feet. They are to be hated. Do not make yourself unclean by these animals; you must not become unclean by them. I am the LORD your God. Keep yourselves holy for me because I am holy. Don’t make yourselves unclean with any of these crawling animals.
