'Meat' in the Bible

But I said, “Oh, Lord God, I have never been defiled. From my youth until now I have not eaten anything that died naturally or was mauled by wild beasts. And impure meat has never entered my mouth.”

They are saying, ‘Isn’t the time near to build houses? The city is the pot, and we are the meat.’

“Therefore, this is what the Lord God says: The slain you have put within it are the meat, and the city is the pot, but I will remove you from it.

The city will not be a pot for you, and you will not be the meat within it. I will judge you at the border of Israel,

Place the pieces of meat in it,every good piece—thigh and shoulder.Fill it with choice bones.

Pile on the logs and kindle the fire!Cook the meat welland mix in the spices!Let the bones be burned!

Therefore say to them: This is what the Lord God says: You eat meat with blood in it, raise your eyes to your idols, and shed blood. Should you then receive possession of the land?
