Leviticus 7:26 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 7:26

Moreover ye shall eat no manner of blood
Of any of the above creatures, or any other, even of any clean creature, and much less of an unclean one:

[whether it be] of fowl or of beast;
of all sorts and kinds. Jarchi thinks, the words being thus expressed, the blood of fishes and locusts is excepted, and so lawful to eat:

in any of your dwellings;
this shows that this law is not to be restrained to creatures slain in sacrifice in the tabernacle, and to the blood of them, but to be understood of all such as were slain in their own houses for food, and the blood of them.

Leviticus 7:26 In-Context

24 For I have taken the wave-breast and shoulder of separation from the children of Israel from the sacrifices of your peace-offerings, and I have given them to Aaron the priest and his sons, a perpetual ordinance from the children of Israel.

25 This is the anointing of Aaron, and the anointing of his sons, of the burnt-offerings of the Lord, in the day in which he brought them forward to minister as priests to the Lord;

26 as the Lord commanded to give to them in the day in which he anointed them of the sons of Israel, a perpetual statute through their generations.

27 This the law of the whole-burnt-offerings, and of sacrifice, and of sin-offering, and of offering for transgression, and of the sacrifice of consecration, and of the sacrifice of peace-offering;

28 as the Lord commanded Moses in the mount Sina, in the day in which he commanded the children of Israel to offer their gifts before the Lord in the wilderness of Sina.
