Deuteronomy 12:22

Context
12:22 Like you eat the gazelle or ibex, so you may eat these; the ritually impure and pure alike may eat them.

Deuteronomy 15:22

Context
15:22 You may eat it in your villages, 1  whether you are ritually impure or clean, 2  just as you would eat a gazelle or an ibex.

Deuteronomy 23:10

Context
23:10 If there is someone among you who is impure because of some nocturnal emission, 3  he must leave the camp; he may not reenter it immediately.

Deuteronomy 14:8

Context
14:8 Also the pig is ritually impure to you; though it has divided hooves, 4  it does not chew the cud. You may not eat their meat or even touch their remains.

1 tn Heb “in your gates.”

2 tc The LXX adds ἐν σοί (en soi, “among you”) to make clear that the antecedent is the people and not the animals. That is, the people, whether ritually purified or not, may eat such defective animals.

3 tn Heb “nocturnal happening.” The Hebrew term קָרֶה (qareh) merely means “to happen” so the phrase here is euphemistic (a “night happening”) for some kind of bodily emission such as excrement or semen. Such otherwise normal physical functions rendered one ritually unclean whether accidental or not. See Lev 15:16-18; 22:4.

4 tc The MT lacks (probably by haplography) the phrase וְשֹׁסַע שֶׁסַע פַּרְסָה (vÿshosashesaparsah, “and is clovenfooted,” i.e., “has parted hooves”), a phrase found in the otherwise exact parallel in Lev 11:7. The LXX and Smr attest the longer reading here. The meaning is, however, clear without it.
