2. “Tell the Israelites: ‘This is the kind of creature you may eat from among all the animals that are on the land.
3. You may eat any among the animals that has a divided hoof (the hooves are completely split in two) and that also chews the cud.
4. However, you must not eat these from among those that chew the cud and have divided hooves: The camel is unclean to you because it chews the cud even though its hoof is not divided.
5. The rock badger is unclean to you because it chews the cud even though its hoof is not divided.
6. The hare is unclean to you because it chews the cud even though its hoof is not divided.
