And I said, A! A! A! Lord God, lo! my soul is not defouled, and from my young childhood till to now I ate not a thing dead by itself, and rent of beasts; and all unclean flesh entered not into my mouth.
A man that eateth a thing dead by itself, either taken of a beast, as well of men born in the land, as of comelings, he shall wash his clothes, and himself in water, and he shall be defouled, till to eventide; and by this order, he shall be made clean;
but whatever thing is dead by itself, eat ye not thereof. Give thou meat to the pilgrim that is within thy gates, that he eat, either sell thou meat to him, for thou art an holy people of thy Lord God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother’s milk.
