∙ 10y agoNo, the Jews are not allowed to eat swine because in Leviticus 11:7 (and elsewhere) it prohibits the consumption of pig.
Other reasons have also cropped up in common Jewish folklore, such as considering the pig to be a dirty animal or that it was a stopgap to prevent Jews from contracting trichonosis.

∙ 7y agoAll Jews have the same Torah, which contains the basic laws of keeping kosher. Orthodox Jews believe that the Torah must be fully observed (Deuteronomy 13:5). They keep the laws of Judaism as codified in the Shulchan Arukh (Code of Jewish Law), which lists the laws of the Torah and Talmud. Torah-study is seen as very important (Deuteronomy 5:1); and the modern world is seen as subservient to the Torah (Talmud, Nedarim 32a), not the other way around.
Other Jewish groups (Conservative, Reform) adapt, curtail or change the Torah-laws in contemporary life, to a greater or lesser degree.
