Why Kosher?

Kosher animal slaughter is an important issue for practicing Jews. They attribute direct revelation from God for their methods of killing animals for food. However, they maintain that the killing has no “ritual” value. According to chabad.com, “There is no ritual involved…It is a cardinal tenet of the Jewish faith …divinely given to Moses at Mount Sinai.” These laws, they say are based on Genesis 9:3, which reads  “Every moving thing that is alive shall be food for you; I give all to you, as I gave the green plant.”[1] But it is verse four in the Christian Bible which gives the details,  “Only you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood.” 

We have demonstrated in the last several posts on this topic, that the prohibition in Genesis 9:4 predates the giving of the law at Sinai. We have made the case that the verse is still applicable today. And practicing Jews agree: it is “as binding and valued today as ever.” Continue reading “The Truth About What Makes Meat Kosher” →
