Deuteronomy 14:11

14:11 All ritually clean birds you may eat.

Deuteronomy 14:20

14:20 You may eat any clean bird.

Deuteronomy 15:22

15:22 You may eat it in your villages, ¹  whether you are ritually impure or clean, ²  just as you would eat a gazelle or an ibex.

Deuteronomy 12:22

12:22 Like you eat the gazelle or ibex, so you may eat these; the ritually impure and pure alike may eat them.

Deuteronomy 12:15

Regulations for Profane Slaughter

12:15 On the other hand, you may slaughter and eat meat as you please when the Lord your God blesses you ³  in all your villages. ⁴  Both the ritually pure and impure may eat it, whether it is a gazelle or an ibex.

Deuteronomy 23:10

23:10 If there is someone among you who is impure because of some nocturnal emission, ⁵  he must leave the camp; he may not reenter it immediately.

¹ tn Heb “in your gates.”

² tc The LXX adds ἐν σοί (en soi, “among you”) to make clear that the antecedent is the people and not the animals. That is, the people, whether ritually purified or not, may eat such defective animals.

¹ tn Heb “only in all the desire of your soul you may sacrifice and eat flesh according to the blessing of the Lord your God which he has given to you.”

² tn Heb “gates” (so KJV, NASB; likewise in vv. 17, 18).

¹ tn Heb “nocturnal happening.” The Hebrew term קָרֶה (qareh) merely means “to happen” so the phrase here is euphemistic (a “night happening”) for some kind of bodily emission such as excrement or semen. Such otherwise normal physical functions rendered one ritually unclean whether accidental or not. See Lev 15:16-18; 22:4.
