Deuteronomy 14:20 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 14:20

But of all clean fowls ye may eat.
] Even of all fowls, but those before excepted; Aben Ezra instances in the locust, as being a clean fowl, that might be eaten; and so the Targum of Jonathan is

``every clean locust ye may eat;''

see ( Leviticus 11:22 ) .

Deuteronomy 14:20 In-Context

18 They include storks and all kinds of herons. They also include hoopoes and bats.
19 All insects that fly together in groups are "unclean" for you. So don't eat them.
20 But you can eat any creature that has wings and is "clean."
21 If you find something that's already dead, don't eat it. You can give it to an outsider who is living in any of your towns. He can eat it. Or you can sell it to someone who is from another country. But you are a holy nation. The LORD your God has set you apart for himself. Don't cook a young goat in its mother's milk.
22 Be sure to set apart a tenth of everything your fields produce each year.
