Deuteronomy 14:17

Verse 17 of 29. The 14th of 34 chapters in Deuteronomy, in The Law.

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,

17the pelican, the vulture, the cormorant,

18the stork, the heron after its kind, the hoopoe, and the bat.

19All winged creeping things are unclean to you. They shall not be eaten.

20Of all clean birds you may eat.

21You shall not eat of anything that dies of itself. You may give it to the foreigner living among you who is within your gates, that he may eat it; or you may sell it to a foreigner; for you are a holy people to the LORD your God. You shall not boil a young goat in its mother’s milk.
