Leviticus 11:8

11:8 You must not eat from their meat and you must not touch their carcasses; they are unclean to you.

Leviticus 25:42

25:42 Since they are my servants whom I brought out from the land of Egypt, they must not be sold in a slave sale.

sn The regulations against touching the carcasses of dead unclean animals (contrast the restriction against eating their flesh) is treated in more detail in Lev 11:24-28 (cf. also vv. 29-40). For the time being, this chapter continues to develop the issue of what can and cannot be eaten.

tn Or perhaps reflexive Niphal rather than passive, “they shall not sell themselves [as in] a slave sale.”
