무릇 이와 같은 것을 만드는 자나 무릇 이것을 타인에게 붓는 자는 그 백성중에서 끊쳐지리라 하라

무릇 스스로 죽은 것이나 들짐승에게 찢겨 죽은 것을 먹은 자는 본토인이나 타국인이나 물론하고 그 옷을 빨고 물로 몸을 씻을 것이며 저녁까지 부정하고 그 후에 정하려니와
715. Since the most ancient people knew and when in self-abasement acknowledged that they were nothing but beasts and wild animals, and that the Lord alone enabled them to be human beings, they not only used to liken whatever resided with themselves to beasts and birds but also called them such. Things of the will they compared to beasts and called them beasts, and those of the understanding they compared to birds and called them birds. They differentiated however between good affections and evil affections. Good affections they compared to lambs, sheep, kids, he-goats, young she-goats, rams, young bulls, and oxen, because they were good and gentle creatures, and also because they had a use in life in that they could be eaten and men could clothe themselves with their skins and wool. These are chiefly the clean beasts. But the evil and savage ones, which also have no use in life, are unclean beasts.
