'Earth' in the Bible

“Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘These are the creatures which you may eat from all the animals that are on the earth.

Yet these you may eat among all the winged insects which walk on all fours: those which have above their feet jointed legs with which to jump on the earth.

‘Now these are to you the unclean among the swarming things which swarm on the earth: the mole, and the mouse, and the great lizard in its kinds,

‘Now every swarming thing that swarms on the earth is detestable, not to be eaten.

Whatever crawls on its belly, and whatever walks on all fours, whatever has many feet, in respect to every swarming thing that swarms on the earth, you shall not eat them, for they are detestable.

For I am the Lord your God. Consecrate yourselves therefore, and be holy, for I am holy. And you shall not make yourselves unclean with any of the swarming things that swarm on the earth.

This is the law regarding the animal and the bird, and every living thing that moves in the waters and everything that swarms on the earth,

So when any man from the sons of Israel, or from the aliens who sojourn among them, in hunting catches a beast or a bird which may be eaten, he shall pour out its blood and cover it with earth.

I will also break down your pride of power; I will also make your sky like iron and your earth like bronze.
