8 και τον χοιρον, διοτι εχει μεν το ονυχιον διχηλον, πλην δεν αναμασσα· ειναι ακαθαρτος εις εσας· απο του κρεατος αυτων δεν θελετε τρωγει ουδε το θνησιμαιον αυτων θελετε εγγιζει.


Commentary on this verse  

By Alexander Payne

Verse 8. And the love of money and the pleasures of the world, although it might be made subservient and in agreement with heavenly love, yet it must be rejected if it draws away the mind to follow it without due subordination to spiritual love, and leads the spiritual man to falses: you shall not appropriate the evils derived from it, nor have the slightest communication with these things when separate from heavenly love.
