Primary Verses:
- Lev. 17:3-4
-
"What man soever there be of the
house of Israel, that killeth an ox, or lamb, or goat,
in the camp, or that killeth it out of the camp, And
bringeth it not unto the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation, to offer an offering unto the LORD before
the tabernacle of the LORD; blood shall be imputed unto
that man; he hath shed blood; and
that man shall be cut
off from among his people:"
-
Lev. 17:10-14
-
"And whatsoever man there be of
the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn
among you, that eateth any manner of blood; I will even
set my face against that soul that eateth blood, and
will cut him off from
among his people. For the life of the
flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon
the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is
the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.
Therefore I said unto the children of Israel, No soul of
you shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger that
sojourneth among you eat blood. 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. For it is
the life of all flesh; the blood of it is for the life
thereof: therefore I said unto the children of Israel,
Ye shall eat the blood of no manner of flesh: for the
life of all flesh is the blood thereof:
whosoever eateth it
shall be cut off."
