Yes, but it does not chew the cud
Yes, lamb have split hooves, because they are baby sheep and sheep have split hooves. They both also chew their cud, so therefor, they are both Kosher.
This is not correct. Jews can eat cloven-hoof mammals. However, this is necessary, but insufficient condition for determining a kosher land animal. It must also ruminate or chew its cud. Therefore, the pig which does have a cloven hoof but does not ruminate may not be consumed. Cows, deer, lamb, bison, antelope, goats, and several other animals that have a cloven hoof and ruminate can be kosher (if slaughtered properly).
Because the law says if they have a cloven hoof AND chew the cud (ruminate) they are permitted to eat it. If they have only one of those traits then they aren't permitted to eat it. A pig has a cloven hoof but doesn't chew the cud!
No. For a land animal to be Kosher it has to have split hooves AND chew its cud. A pig isn't kosher because it doesn't chew it's cud.
Any animal that had a split hoof, such as a cow has a split hoof, and chewed its cud much like a cow also chews its cud, was fit for food. As for fish, they had to have scales. Also the animals could not be scavengers.
Yes bison chew their cud and have double-toed hooves like cows.
Answer:Anyone CAN eat anything they want to... or dare to. However, God tells us in His Word what meat is GOOD for us to eat, provided it's prepared in the manner He also commands. Our Creator wants us to he healthy... thus, the "dietary laws."Some of the "clean meats" fit for human consumption are those not just with "split hooves"... but they must also "chew the cud.""Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, AND cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat. Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the hoof: as the camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean to you... the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean to you... the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you..." (Lev.11:3-7).According to the Bible, these two criteria determine whether an animal is fit for human consumption. The unclean animals also "can" be eaten... but, according to the Bible, "shouldn't be."
Yes, it is an antelope, and therefore kosher.
no you should not eat the pig because the bible says"the pig has split hooves but do not chew cud" so they are unlean, you can eat any animal with split hooves and chew cud,even cow
The Torah requires that animals that Jews consume have split hooves and chew their cud. Horses do not have split hooves. http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Cookbook:Kosher Horses also do not chew cud.
Lev:11:3: Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, and cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat. Lev:11:7: And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you. Lev:11:26: The carcases of every beast which divideth the hoof, and is not clovenfooted, nor cheweth the cud, are unclean unto you: every one that toucheth them shall be unclean. Deut:14:7: Nevertheless these ye shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the cloven hoof; as the camel, and the hare, and the coney: for they chew the cud, but divide not the hoof; therefore they are unclean unto you.
