Leviticus 7:23-24

23 Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, You* will eat no fat, of ox, or sheep, or goat. 24 And the fat of what dies of itself and the fat of what is torn of beasts, may be used for any other service, but you* will certainly not eat of it.

Leviticus 11:1-47

1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them, 2 Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, These are the living things which you* may eat among all the beasts that are on the earth. 3 Whatever parts the hoof and is cloven footed and chews the cud, among the beasts, that may you* eat.
4 Nevertheless these will you* not eat of those that chew the cud, or of those that part the hoof: the camel, because he chews the cud but does not part the hoof, he is unclean to you*. 5 And the coney, because he chews the cud but does not part the hoof, he is unclean to you*. 6 And the hare, because she chews the cud but does not part the hoof, she is unclean to you*. 7 And the swine, because he parts the hoof and is cloven footed, but does not chew the cud, he is unclean to you*. 8 Of their flesh you* will not eat and their carcasses you* will not touch, they are unclean to you*.
9 These may you* eat of all that are in the waters: whatever has fins and scales in the waters, in the seas and in the rivers, that may you* eat.
10 And all that have no fins and scales in the seas and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters and of all the living creatures that are in the waters, they are an abomination to you*, 11 and they will be an abomination to you*. You* will not eat of their flesh and their carcasses you* will have in abomination. 12 Whatever has no fins nor scales in the waters, that is an abomination to you*.
13 And these you* will have in abomination among the birds, they will not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle and the vulture and the osprey, 14 and the kite and the falcon after its kind, 15 every raven after its kind, 16 and the ostrich and the night-hawk and the sea-gull and the hawk after its kind, 17 and the little owl and the cormorant and the great owl, 18 and the horned owl and the pelican and the carrion vulture, 19 and the stork, the heron after its kind and the hoopoe and the bat. 20 All winged creeping things that go upon all fours are an abomination to you*.
21 Yet these you* may eat of all winged creeping things that go upon all fours, which have legs above their feet, with which to leap upon the earth, 22 even these of them you* may eat: the locust after its kind and the bald locust after its kind and the cricket after its kind and the grasshopper after its kind. 23 But all winged creeping things, which have four feet, are an abomination to you*, 24 and by these you* will become unclean. Whoever touches the carcass of them will be unclean until the evening. 25 And whoever bears any of the carcass of them will wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening.
26 Every beast which parts the hoof and is not cloven footed, nor chews the cud, is unclean to you*. Everyone who touches them will be unclean. 27 And whatever goes upon its paws, among all beasts that go on all fours, they are unclean to you*. Whoever touches their carcass will be unclean until the evening. 28 And he who bears the carcass of them will wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening; they are unclean to you*.
29 And these are those which are unclean to you* among the creeping things that creep upon the earth: the weasel and the mouse and the great lizard after its kind, 30 and the gecko and the land-crocodile and the lizard and the sand-lizard and the chameleon. 31 These are those which are unclean to you* among all that creep. Whoever touches them, when they are dead, will be unclean until the evening.
32 And upon whatever any of them falls when they are dead, it will be unclean, whether it is any vessel of wood, or garments, or skin, or sack. Whatever vessel it be, with which any work is done, it must be put into water and it will be unclean until the evening, then it will be clean. 33 And every earthen vessel, into which any of them falls, whatever is in it will be unclean and you* will break it. 34 All food in it which may be eaten, that on which water comes, will be unclean and all drink that may be drunk in every such vessel will be unclean. 35 And everything upon which any part of their carcass falls will be unclean, whether oven, or range for pots, it will be broken in pieces; they are unclean and will be unclean to you*. 36 Nevertheless a fountain or a pit in which is a gathering of water will be clean, but what touches their carcass will be unclean. 37 And if any of their carcass falls upon any sowing seed which is to be sown, it is clean. 38 But if water is put upon the seed and any of their carcass falls in it, it is unclean to you*. 39 And if any beast, of which you* may eat, dies, he who touches the carcass of it will be unclean until the evening. 40 And he who eats of the carcass of it will wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening. He also who bears the carcass of it will wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening.
41 And every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth is an abomination; it will not be eaten. 42 Whatever goes upon the belly and whatever goes upon all fours, or whatever has many feet, even all creeping things that creep upon the earth, them you* will not eat, for they are an abomination. 43 You* will not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creeps, nor will you* make yourselves unclean with them, that you* should be defiled by it.
44 For I am Jehovah your* God. Sanctify yourselves therefore and become you* holy, since I am holy. Neither will you* defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that moves upon the earth. 45 For I am Jehovah who brought you* up out of the land of Egypt, to be your* God. You* will therefore be holy, for I am holy.
46 This is the law of the beast and of the bird and of every living creature that moves in the waters and of every creature that creeps upon the earth, 47 to make a distinction between the unclean and the clean and between the living thing that may be eaten and the living thing that may not be eaten.

23 Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, You* will eat no fat, of ox, or sheep, or goat.

Deuteronomy 8:3

3 And he humbled you and allowed you to hunger and fed you with manna, which you did not know, neither did your fathers know, that he might make you know that man does not live by bread alone, but man lives by everything that proceeds out of the mouth of Jehovah.

Proverbs 30:8-9

Daniel 1:11-16

11 Then Daniel said to the steward whom the ruler of the eunuchs had appointed over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah, 12 I beseech you, test your servants ten days and let them give us vegetables to eat and water to drink. 13 Then let our countenances be looked upon before you and the countenance of the youths that eat of the king's food. And as you see, deal with your servants.
14 So he listened to them in this matter and tested them ten days. 15 And at the end of ten days their countenances appeared finer and they were fuller in flesh, than all the youths who ate of the king's dainties. 16 So the steward took away their food and the wine that they should drink and gave them vegetables.

Daniel 1:1-21

1 In the third year of the reign of Jehoiakim king of Judah, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came to Jerusalem and besieged it. 2 And the Lord gave Jehoiakim king of Judah into his hand, with part of the vessels of the house of God. And he carried them into the land of Shinar to the house of his god and he brought the vessels into the treasure-house of his god.
3 And the king spoke to Ashpenaz the master of his eunuchs, that he should bring in certain of the sons of Israel, even of the seed royal and of the ranking men, 4 youths in whom was no blemish, but fine-looking and skillful in all wisdom and endued with knowledge and understanding science and such as had ability to stand in the king's palace. And that he should teach them the learning and the tongue of the Chaldeans.
5 And the king appointed for them a daily portion of the king's food and of the wine which he drank. And that they should be nourished three years, that at the end of it they should stand before the king.
6 Now among these were, of the sons of Judah: Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah. 7 And the ruler of the eunuchs gave names to them. To Daniel he gave the name of Belteshazzar and to Hananiah, of Shadrach and to Mishael, of Meshach and to Azariah, of Abed-nego.
8 But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the king's food, nor with the wine which he drank. Therefore he requested of the ruler of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself.
9 Now God made Daniel find kindness and compassion in the sight of the ruler of the eunuchs. 10 And the ruler of the eunuchs said to Daniel, I fear my lord the king, who has appointed your* food and your* drink. For why should he see your* faces worse looking than the youths that are of your* own age? So you* would endanger my head with the king.
11 Then Daniel said to the steward whom the ruler of the eunuchs had appointed over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah, 12 I beseech you, test your servants ten days and let them give us vegetables to eat and water to drink. 13 Then let our countenances be looked upon before you and the countenance of the youths that eat of the king's food. And as you see, deal with your servants.
14 So he listened to them in this matter and tested them ten days. 15 And at the end of ten days their countenances appeared finer and they were fuller in flesh, than all the youths who ate of the king's dainties. 16 So the steward took away their food and the wine that they should drink and gave them vegetables.
17 Now as for these four youths, God gave them knowledge and skill in all learning and wisdom. And Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams. 18 And at the end of the days which the king had appointed for bringing them in, the ruler of the eunuchs brought them in before Nebuchadnezzar.
19 And the king spoke with them. And among them all none was found like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah. Therefore they stood before the king. 20 And in every matter of wisdom and understanding, concerning which the king inquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and enchanters who were in all his realm. 21 And Daniel continued even to the first year of king Cyrus.
