The creeping things which are unclean Additionally, you are to detest The Hebrew word for "detest" is "שָׁקַץ" (shaqats), which conveys a strong sense of abhorrence or loathing. In the context of Levitical law, this term underscores the importance of maintaining ritual purity and holiness. The Israelites were called to be set apart, and this command reflects God's desire for His people to distinguish themselves from surrounding nations through their dietary practices. The use of "detest" emphasizes the seriousness with which these laws were to be observed, serving as a reminder of the covenant relationship between God and Israel. the following birds and they must not be eaten because they are detestable the eagle, the bearded vulture, the black vulture The eagle.--As the king of the birds, the eagle stands first in the list. It denotes here all the species of the eagle proper. Arabian writers, scientific travellers, and the most distinguished naturalists, concur in their testimony that the eagle eats carrion when it is still fresh, thus harmonizing with the description in Job 39:10; Proverbs 30:17; Matthew 24:28, &c. The assertion, therefore, that the bird here meant is the Egyptian vulture, because the eagle disdains dead bodies and feeds only on what it kills itself, is erroneous. Besides the kindred dialects, all the ancient versions and the best Hebrew scholars place it beyond a doubt that Nesher here denotes eagle. Afterwards, however, the carrion-kite and the golden vulture were also reckoned among the different species of eagles. Hence the allusion in Micah 1:16. . . . Verses 13-19. - The unclean birds are those which are gross feeders, devourers of flesh or offal, and therefore offensive to the taste, beginning with the eagle and vulture tribe. It is probable that the words translated owl (verse 16), night hawk (verse 16), cuckow (verse 16) should be rendered, ostrich, owl, gull, and perhaps for swan (verse 18), heron (verse 19), lapwing (verse 19), should be substituted ibis, great plover, hoopoe. In the case of the bat, we have again phenomenal language used. Being generally regarded as a bird, it is classed with birds.Parallel Commentaries ...
