Dietary Laws in the Old Testament

Because food goes into a person’s body, it is an important cause of impurity according to the Bible. The food laws indicate which food is unclean and therefore must not be eaten by the Israelites.

The majority of the dietary laws are recorded in Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14:3-21. However, the book of Genesis also contains rules about food (the covenant with Noah; Genesis 7:2-8; Genesis 8:20).
