The passage you are referring to means "Do not boil a kid in its mothers milk." That means you shouldn't cook a baby goat in the milk of a goat. There were dietary laws that state:

  • the prohibition against cooking a mixture of milk and meat
  • the prohibition against eating a cooked mixture of milk and meat
  • the prohibition against deriving any benefit from a cooked mixture of milk and meat

One possible reason is that some of the nations participated in that practice in their religion.

Exodus 34:26, includes "Thou shalt not cook a young goat by it's mother's milk." This is an issue of humane treatment of animals. This mitzvah tells us that it is inhumane to cooking an animal in its own mother's milk. The reason this is considered inhumane is the fact the the milk should have supported that animal in life, but instead it is being used in conjunction with its death. Some people believe this was an ancient health law, but this view is rejected by most scholars.
