Deuteronomy 14:20 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 14:20

But of all clean fowls ye may eat.

``every clean locust ye may eat;''

see ( Leviticus 11:22 ) .

Deuteronomy 14:20 In-Context

18 storks, all types of herons, hoopoes, and bats.
19 Every swarming, winged insect is also unclean for you. They must never be eaten.
20 However, you may eat any [other kind of] flying creature that is clean.
21 Never eat any creature that dies naturally. You may give it to the foreigners who live in your cities, and they may eat it. You may also sell it to foreigners who are visiting. But you are people who are holy to the LORD your God. Never cook a young goat in its mother's milk.
22 Every year be sure to save a tenth of the crops harvested from whatever you plant in your fields.
