Biblical food laws in a modern world
What is Kosher, the biblical way?
Below is listed many animals, in their categories, which you are allowed to eat (kosher) and animals you are not allowed to eat (unkosher.) I also have listed many dietary kosher laws for your knowledge and information.
However, in the lists below, even though an animal might be on the list of things you can eat, this does not mean it is still kosher. Let me explain: There are several commandments in the Torah that can render a single kosher animal, when defiled, unkosher and so one must not eat it. This obviously would not render the whole species of that particular animal unkosher, just that single animal in question. Here is an example: It is said in the Torah that you must not eat an animal if it has been killed by an unkosher wild beast, or simply by an unkosher animal. Now here is a scenario: if I were to go walking in the forest and I came upon a deer that was just recently killed by a mountain lion, I must not eat that deer. Thus, this particular kosher animal is now rendered unkosher.
So, here is a list of commandments or statutes that render kosher animals as unclean or unkosher:
This particular list, according to us at Ancient Judaism.Org, is more accurate to the biblical laws of HaShem than how "Rabbinical" Judaism 'sees' the Biblical laws. This is because "Rabbinical" Judaism adheres more to the traditions of men [which are often times more wrong than right] than to the laws, precepts and simplicity of the holy prophets of HaShem.
1. If someone cooks meat or any food for that matter, during the Sabbath that food is unkosher
during the hours of that Sabbath. The reason for this is because if you were to eat such food, you would
participate in their sin and you must not do that [Lev 19:17].
2. If an animal has been sacrificed to a non-existing god or idol, like Baal, the Trinity of so-called "Christians,"
Zeus, Oden, Ra or..... then that food is totally unkosher, you may never eat it and you must throw such food
in the fire [Exodus 34:15].
3. If the meat is the meat of the goat or lamb regarding the Passover offering, you must not eat any more of it if
the first gleam of daylight appears in the horizon, (thus, making it unkosher from that point on.) If there is any
left by that point, it must be burned in the fire [Exodus 12:10].
4. If a kosher animal slays another kosher animal, you may eat the dead animal, because it was killed
by a kosher animal. We see this in the commandment..."if an ox gores another ox". This would also apply if
an ox were to gore a giraffe or deer, etc, or even if an ox should step or fall on another kosher animal and it
dies [Exodus 21:35].
5. If an unkosher animal slays a kosher animal, the kosher animal is now rendered 'unkosher' and you must not
eat it. You may feed unkosher animals with such meat [Exodus 22:31].
6. If an ox gores a human, however, that ox must be put to death by stoning and rendered unkosher. You
can, however, feed other animals that are not kosher animals with such meat, such as your dog and so
forth [Exodus 21:28].
7. According to Leviticus 19:5-8, if a person offers a fellowship offering to Yehowah, it is rendered unkosher after
the second day.
8. If an animal dies on its own, it is rendered unkosher. Thus, it is better to slay the animal before it becomes too
old, if you are planning on eating it {Deut 14:21].
9. Because the ancient people did not have to worry about their food and meats being tainted with medicines,
hormones, vitamins and chemicals (such as man-made fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides and so on) and
other man-made things, they all ate organic food and so ate freely without having to worry about such things.
However, things have changed quite a bit since that time. All foods that are not strictly organic and natural are
rendered unkosher. According to the God of Israel and His prophets (not the modern Jewish sages) even
water is rendered unkosher if chlorine or fluoride has been added to it, or any of the above things mentioned,
through run-off.. Therefore, even if someone might have organic, natural and kosher meat, but they then cook
it with chlorinated water [common tap water most of the time], or have rinsed it off with such, the food is
rendered unkosher.
10. If a female kosher animal is unclean because she just had kids, like a woman is unclean after childbirth, you
must not eat the kids before the 8th day, nor are you allowed to eat the mother during such time. Never heard
of this commandment? I gleaned this from the commandment of giving your firstborn animals to
Yehowah. Let us look at it, "Do not hold back offerings from your granaries or your vats.
You must give me the firstborn of your sons. Do the same with your cattle and your sheep. Let them stay
with their mothers for seven days, but give them to me on the eighth day (Exodus 22:30)." Do you see
that Yehowah puts animals and humans in the same boat in regards to birth? If this is so, then such animals
cannot be used for the offerings at festivals either, because they are unclean.
11. Now, here is a new commandment for this site, even though it is as old as the kosher laws themselves.
My wife thought of it while giving my five year old daughter some scenarios on how to apply the torah correctly
with life's circumstances during the shabath on 9/15/6181 or Dec 13, 2008. She asked her, "If I take a clean,
kosher iron skillet, and put organic rice in it with some spring water and a kosher bird of some sort and I also
add some crawfish from our creek to the pan and cook them too, then later on, I give the crawfish to the dog,
can I still eat the bird and rice?"
Being five, she said, "Yes, because you are not eating the crawfish, because you gave it to the dog."
Then I said, "No my dear, you can never eat such food, because the very moment the crawfish touched the
water or anywhere within the pan [not the outside of the pan] all the food is rendered unkosher for us, but not
for the dog, because he is allowed to eat practically anything."
She said, "Oh."
With that I said, I need to put that on the website, because many people that are starting out in this lifestyle
actually do the wrong thing in this scenario, for someone might give them a can of "pork and beans" and they would pluck out the pork and still eat the beans. Therefore, because of their lack of knowledge they sin
against Yehowah, the God of Israel. Or, again they might think they are being 'kosher," yet, have no clue
concerning all the real rules of kashrut, where one must also live the organic lifestyle as a part of the kosher
lifestyle. I am saying this because many people will do this sort of thing like going to a Gentile restaurant to
only get a salad at the salad bar. While there the person sees that some bacon bits have found their way onto
the salad, because someone's child didn't keep the spoon in its "right" place. So being ignorant, the person
simply wipes it off on a napkin and then eats the same lettuce and salad. Not to mention all the other things
unkosher restaurants do in the back when preparing the things for the salad bar. Such as cut the lettuce and
other items on the same table where unkosher meats were or they might even use the same knife. Not
counting the chlorinated water they use to rinse everything with, and unkosher soaps and so forth.
This is how some people approach the laws of Kashrut, but you must never act in this way. First and
foremost, if the restaurant is not strictly "Kosher" and "organic" and if they [the restaurant] do not use only
spring water or non-chlorinated well water you cannot even consider such a place. The whole place and all
that is in it must be rendered 'unkosher.' As well as all such foods in the "pork and beans" scenario. Just for
your information, I personally know of no truly kosher restaurant, despite what they might advertise. One
must always make sure that any "kosher restaurant" is also truly organic and does not use chlorinated waters, etc, as listed above.
12. Despite what "Rabbinical Judaism" says in regards to meat and dairy, we at Kanay Chasidim do not see
things with their point of view. We at Kanay Chasidim know that in this regard, they add to the laws of
HaShem and even condemn Abraham by their 'oral' laws - which we deem from the devil and are apostate
in nature. "Rabbinical Judaism" does not allow the mixing, nor the eating of dairy and meats together. They
even go so far as to having separate dishes and utensils, and even refrigerators for the separation of such
things. However, don't tell that to our righteous, and not evil patriarch Abraham, [blessed be he forever] who
gave meat, milk and butter to the three holy travelers that came to visit him in the plains of Mamre [Genesis
18]. For this is what the Torah truly says that counters mainstream so-called 'Judaism,' which is not Judaism
at all in our opinion. "And Abraham ran unto the herd, and fetched a calf tender and good, and gave it unto a
young man; and he hasted to dress it. And he [Abraham] took butter, and milk, and the calf which he had
dressed, and set such before them; and he stood by them under the tree, and they did dine. [Genesis
18:7-8]." This totally goes against "Rabbinical Judaism" and boldly condemns any oral man-made traditions.
Keep in mind that the Torah itself is the standard!! To go along with this thought, let us look at # 13.
13. In Exodus 23:19, 34:26 and Deut 14:21 the commandment is the same: "Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his
mother's milk." Well, according to the Torah, you must not add, nor subtract from the details, nor the wording
of individual commandments. With that being said, this particular commandment does not forbid the seething
of a kid with the milk of another goat or other kosher animal. This proves that the "rabbinical" oral tradition of
not eating dairy and meats together is a totally unnecessary addition to the holy torah, and not of HaShem! It is utter non-sense. Furthermore, if their 'tradition' were of HaShem, the commandment would have been
more simplistic, like: "Do not seethe a kid in milk." Therefore, the reasoning behind the real commandment
seems to be leaning toward a heart felt sorrow for the mother of the kid, and not wanting to "heap abuse on
top of injury." With that being said, you must not eat such meat if someone has cooked a kid in its mother's
milk, so that you will not share in their sin. That food must be given to the dogs or some other unkosher
animal, if it is totally organic. Also, the one who broke the commandment must repent for breaking it.
14. If a person dies inside a home or building, all the food and any manner of drink within that home or building is
rendered unkosher during any biblical holiday, but not during a regular day. This rule is only for clean
individuals during biblical holidays, but not for someone that became defiled because of the dead body.
Defiled individuals can eat such food and drink such drinks during the holidays, because an unclean person
cannot celebrate at the Temple anyway, nor participate in any sacred meal from such holidays, including
the eating of the tithe or any fulfilled vow meal or any offering [Leviticus 7:20-21, 22:3, Numbers 19:15].
15. In regards to kosher and clean animals, all manner of fat and blood is considered unkosher for the eater, but
not to those that offer sacrifices on the holy bronze altar. For the one that gives sacrifices, the fat is placed
upon the wood that is upon the bronze altar and the blood is either sprinkled against the altar, or is poured
out upon it. Now as far as the eater, and even the hunter is concerned, here are some commandments:
a. "For whosoever eateth the fat of the beast, of which men offer an offering made by fire unto Yehowah,
even the soul that eateth [it] shall be cut off from his people [Lev 7:25].".
b. "Whatsoever soul [it be] that eateth any manner of blood, even that soul shall be cut off from his
people [Lev 7:27]."
c. And whatsoever man [there be] of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, which
hunteth and catcheth any beast or fowl that may be eaten; he shall even pour out the blood thereof, and
cover it with dust [Lev 17:13].
16. Certain things are only considered "kosher" to be eaten at the Temple in Jerusalem:
"Thou mayest not eat within thy gates the tithe of thy corn, or of thy wine, or of thy oil, or the firstlings of thy
herds or of thy flock, nor any of thy vows which thou vowest, nor thy freewill offerings, or heave offering of
thine hand: But thou must eat them before the LORD thy God in the place which the LORD thy God shall
choose, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy manservant, and thy maidservant, and the Levite that
[is] within thy gates: and thou shalt rejoice before the LORD thy God in all that thou puttest thine hands
unto."
17. You must not eat any sacrificial animal without actually sacrificing it at the Temple, unless it is too far to do
such things. Now the sacrifical animals are these: cows, goats, sheep, doves and pigeons. Here is such a
commandment:
"When Yehowah thy God shall enlarge thy border, as He hath promised thee, and thou shalt say, I will eat
flesh, because thy soul longeth to eat flesh; thou mayest eat flesh, whatsoever thy soul lusteth after. If the
place which Yehowah thy God hath chosen to put His name there be too far from thee, then thou shalt kill
of thy herd and of thy flock, which Yehowah hath given thee, as I have commanded thee, and thou shalt eat
in thy gates whatsoever thy soul lusteth after. Even as the roebuck and the hart is eaten, so thou shalt eat
them: the unclean and the clean shall eat [of] them alike. Only be sure that thou eat not the blood: for the
blood [is] the life; and thou mayest not eat the life with the flesh. Thou shalt not eat it; thou shalt pour it upon
the earth as water" [Deuteronomy 12:20-24].
This commandment clearly points out the fact that all manner of killing must be a sacrifice to Yehowah, if
the person lives relatively close to the Temple. Keep in mind that they did not have cars and trucks when
this commandment was given. Rather, the people would either walk to the Temple or carry their animal by
donkey or wagon to the Temple, such as a goat or lamb.
These are the animals you are allowed to eat according to the Torah:

A complete list of Kosher animals [below]
THANK YOU FOR VISITING
ANCIENTJUDAISM.ORG
There are three things that run in common with
all of these animals:
1. The first one is the most helpful when
hunting or when you are hungry and you
are NOT close to the animal at all to
determine if it is kosher, but you are
standing afar off. All kosher animals
have horns on top of their head;
whereas, the pig, even though it has a
split hoof, does not have horns. Likewise,
even though the rabbit and the camel
chew the cud, they don't have horns either.
The Rinno has a single horn, but it is on its
face, not on the top of its head, plus it
doesn't have hoofs, let alone split hoofs.
2. They re-chew their food, that is: they
chew the cud.
3. Their hoof footprints show or display
two "toes" or a pair of markings like this
one from the "Kafue Lechwe."
These are cow prints, but the cow was
walking around in mud, therefore the prints
are not "well" defined here. The one on the
right, however, shows more of its two
"toes."
