Deuteronomy 14:3-8

3“1You shall not eat any detestable thing. 42These are the animals which you may eat: the ox, the sheep, the goat, 53the deer, the gazelle, the roebuck, the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope and the mountain sheep. 6Any animal that divides the hoof and has the hoof split in 4two and 5chews the cud, among the animals, that you may eat. 7Nevertheless, you are not to eat of these among those which 6chew the cud, or among those that divide the hoof in 7two: the camel and the 8rabbit and the 9shaphan, for though they 10chew the cud, they do not divide the hoof; they are unclean for you. 8The pig, because it divides the hoof but does not chew the cud, it is unclean for you. You shall not eat any of their flesh nor touch their carcasses.
