Fat and Blood Prohibited

22 The Lord spoke to Moses: 23 “Tell the Israelites: You are not to eat any fat(A) of an ox, a sheep, or a goat. 24 The fat of an animal that dies naturally or is mauled by wild beasts[a](B) may be used for any other purpose, but you must not eat it.(C) 25 If anyone eats animal fat from a food offering presented to the Lord, the person who eats it is to be cut off from his people. 26 Wherever you live, you must not eat the blood(D) of any bird or animal. 27 Whoever eats any blood is to be cut off from his people.”
