Read in context

Leviticus 11:43–47 · Berean Standard Bible

43 Do not defile yourselves by any crawling creature; do not become unclean or defiled by them.

44 For I am the LORD your God; consecrate yourselves, therefore, and be holy, because I am holy. You must not defile yourselves by any creature that crawls along the ground.

45 For I am the LORD, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt so that I would be your God; therefore be holy, because I am holy.

46 This is the law regarding animals, birds, all living creatures that move in the water, and all creatures that crawl along the ground.

47 You must distinguish between the unclean and the clean, between animals that may be eaten and those that may not.’”
