The Old Testament refers to Gentiles as unclean primarily in the context of dietary laws and ritual purity. For instance, in Leviticus 11, certain animals are deemed unclean, and by extension, the food practices of Gentiles could be viewed as defiling for Israel. Additionally, in passages like Isaiah 52:1, the term "unclean" is used in relation to those who do not follow God's laws, which can include Gentiles. However, it’s important to note that the concept of uncleanliness is often tied to specific practices rather than an inherent status of Gentiles themselves.

Does it say in the new testament that it is okay to eat pork?
Quote "Yes. According to the Bible, Peter had a vision of God's New Covenant with man through Jesus, and therefore we are now able to enjoy yummy bacon without guilt. Acts 11:4-10 4 Peter began and explained everything to them precisely as it had happened: 5 "I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in a trance I saw a vision. I saw something like a large sheet being let down from heaven by its four corners, and it came down to where I was. 6 "I looked into it and saw four-footed animals of the earth, wild beasts, reptiles, and birds of the air. 7 "Then I heard a voice telling me, 'Get up, Peter. Kill and eat.' 8 "I replied, 'Surely not, Lord! Nothing impure or unclean has ever entered my mouth.' 9 "The voice spoke from heaven a second time, 'Do not call anything impure that God has made clean.' 10 "This happened three times, and then it was all pulled up to heaven again.""I'm not sure what translation you are using here but in the KJV Acts 10 8-28 it uses the words common and unclean. Unclean is the description originally used to forbid eating any animal with split hooves. The word common is used in reference to the food that the gentiles ate (foreign food). God never said he blessed unclean. His words were "What God has cleansed, that call not though common." The vision of Peter does not state there were any animals with split hooves. Also in verse 28 it plainly states upon meeting Cornelius Peter said " Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath showed me that I should not call any man common or unclean." He is referring to the trance/vision that some use as an excuse to eat forbidden foods. Some people just didn't get the story of Adam and Eve. lol_AK
