Deuteronomy 14:12

Verse 12 of 29. The 14th of 34 chapters in Deuteronomy, in The Law.

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.

9These you may eat of all that are in the waters: you may eat whatever has fins and scales.

10You shall not eat whatever doesn’t have fins and scales. It is unclean to you.

11Of all clean birds you may eat.

12But these are they of which you shall not eat: the eagle, the vulture, the osprey,

13the red kite, the falcon, the kite of any kind,

14every raven of any kind,

15the ostrich, the owl, the seagull, the hawk of any kind,

16the little owl, the great owl, the horned owl,
