20 "Todo insecto alado que ande sobre cuatro patas os serĂĄ abominaciĂłn.

Levítico 11:20 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 11:20

All fowls that creep
Or rather "every creeping thing that flies"; for what are designed are not properly fowls, but, as the Jewish writers interpret them, flies, fleas, bees, wasps, hornets, locusts so the Targum of Jonathan, Jarchi, Ben Gersom, and Maimonides F25:

going upon [all] four;
that is, upon their four feet, when they walk or creep:

[these shall be] an abomination to you;
not used as food, but detested as such.

F25 Maacolot Asurot, c. 2. l. 5.

18 la lechuza blanca, el pelĂ­cano, el buitre comĂșn,
19 la cigueña, la garza segĂșn su especie; la abubilla y el murciĂ©lago.
20 "Todo insecto alado que ande sobre cuatro patas os serĂĄ abominaciĂłn.
21 "Sin embargo, éstos podéis comer de entre todos los insectos alados que andan sobre cuatro patas: los que tienen, ademås de sus patas, piernas con coyunturas para saltar con ellas sobre la tierra.
22 "De ellos podĂ©is comer Ă©stos: la langosta segĂșn sus especies, la langosta destructora segĂșn sus especies, el grillo segĂșn sus especies y el saltamontes segĂșn sus especies.
