  Isaac and Abimelek 1 Now there was a famine in the land—besides the previous famine in Abraham’s time—and Isaac went to Abimelek king of the Philistines in Gerar.  2 The  Lord  appeared to Isaac and said, “Do not go down to Egypt; live in the land where I tell you to live.  3 Stay in this land for a while, and I will be with you and will bless you. For to you and your descendants I will give all these lands and will confirm the oath I swore to your father Abraham.  4 I will make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and will give them all these lands, and through your offspring  all nations on earth will be blessed,   5 because Abraham obeyed me and did everything I required of him, keeping my commands, my decrees and my instructions.”  6 So Isaac stayed in Gerar. 7 When the men of that place asked him about his wife, he said, “She is my sister,” because he was afraid to say, “She is my wife.” He thought, “The men of this pla...

  You Shall Be Holy 22 “ ‘Keep all my decrees and laws and follow them, so that the land where I am bringing you to live may not vomit you out.  23 You must not live according to the customs of the nations I am going to drive out before you. Because they did all these things, I abhorred them.  24 But I said to you, “You will possess their land; I will give it to you as an inheritance, a land flowing with milk and honey.” I am the  Lord  your God, who has set you apart from the nations. 25 “ ‘You must therefore make a distinction between clean and unclean animals and between unclean and clean birds. Do not defile yourselves by any animal or bird or anything that moves along the ground—those that I have set apart as unclean for you.  26 You are to be holy to me because I, the  Lord , am holy, and I have set you apart from the nations to be my own. 27 “ ‘A man or woman who is a medium or spiritist among you must be put to death.

  Clean and Unclean Food 1 The  Lord  said to Moses and Aaron,  2 “Say to the Israelites: ‘Of all the animals that live on land, these are the ones you may eat:  3 You may eat any animal that has a divided hoof and that chews the cud. 4 “ ‘There are some that only chew the cud or only have a divided hoof, but you must not eat them. The camel, though it chews the cud, does not have a divided hoof; it is ceremonially unclean for you.  5 The hyrax, though it chews the cud, does not have a divided hoof; it is unclean for you.  6 The rabbit, though it chews the cud, does not have a divided hoof; it is unclean for you.  7 And the pig, though it has a divided hoof, does not chew the cud; it is unclean for you.  8 You must not eat their meat or touch their carcasses; they are unclean for you. 9 “ ‘Of all the creatures living in the water of the seas and the streams you may eat any that have fins and scales.  10 But all creatures in the seas or s...
