diet and nutrition

²⁹And God said: “Behold, I have given you every seed-bearing plant upon the earth, and all the trees that have in themselves the ability to sow their own kind, to be food for you,

¹⁹Or do you not know that your bodies are the Temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have from God, and that you are not your own? ²⁰For you have been bought at a great price. Glorify and carry God in your body.

³¹Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever else you may do, do everything for the glory of God.

³And everything that moves and lives will be food for you. Just as with the edible plants, I have delivered them all to you,

¹²“I beg you to test us, your servants, for ten days, and let roots be given to us to eat and water to drink,

¹But accept those who are weak in faith, without disputing about ideas. ²For one person believes that he may eat all things, but if another is weak, let him eat plants. ³He who eats should not despise him who does not eat. And he who does not eat should not judge him who eats. For God has accepted him. ⁴Who are you to judge the servant of another? He stands or falls by his own Lord. But he shall stand. For God is able to make him stand. ⁵For one person discerns one age from the next. But another discerns unto every age. Let each one increase according to his own mind. ⁶He who understands the age, understands for the Lord. And he who eats, eats for the Lord; for he gives thanks to God. And he who does not eat, does not eat for the Lord, and he gives thanks to God.

¹⁵But, after ten days, their faces appeared better and fatter than all the children who had eaten from the king’s food.

³⁵Then Jesus said to them: “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst.

²³Say to the sons of Israel: The fat of a sheep, and of an ox, and of a goat you shall not eat. ²⁴The fat of a carcass that has died on its own, or of an animal that has been seized by a wild beast, you shall have for various uses.

¹⁷by a perpetual law, in your generations and in all of your habitations, neither blood nor fat shall you eat at all.

⁹And you shall take for yourself wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentils, and millet, and vetch. And you shall set them in one vessel, and you shall make for yourself bread by the number of days that you will sleep upon your side: three hundred and ninety days shall you shall eat from it.

¹²All is lawful to me, but not all is expedient. All is lawful to me, but I will not be driven back by the authority of anyone.

⁴But whatever certainly chews over again, but has a hoof that is not divided, such as the camel and others, these you shall not eat, and you shall consider them to be among what is unclean. ⁵The rock rabbit which chews over again, and whose hoof is not divided, is unclean, ⁶and so also is the hare, for it too chews over again, yet its hoof is not divided, ⁷and also the swine, which, though its hoof is divided, does not chew over again. ⁸The flesh of these you shall not eat, nor shall you touch their carcasses, because they are unclean to you. ⁹These are the things that breed in the waters, and which it is lawful to eat. All that has little fins and scales, as much in the sea, as in the rivers and ponds, you shall eat.

⁸a land of crops, barley, and vineyards, in which fig and pomegranate and olive trees spring up, a land of oil and honey.

¹And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying: ²Say to the sons of Israel: These are the animals that you ought to eat out of all the living things of the earth. ³All that has a divided hoof, and that chews over again, among the cattle, you shall eat. ⁴But whatever certainly chews over again, but has a hoof that is not divided, such as the camel and others, these you shall not eat, and you shall consider them to be among what is unclean. ⁵The rock rabbit which chews over again, and whose hoof is not divided, is unclean, ⁶and so also is the hare, for it too chews over again, yet its hoof is not divided,

⁷Cast all your cares upon him, for he takes care of you.
