Deuteronomy 14:4-8

4These are the animals which you may eat: the ox, the sheep, the goat,

5the deer, the gazelle, the roe deer, the wild goat, the mountain goat, the antelope, and the mountain sheep.

6And you may eat every animal with cloven hooves, having the hoof split into two parts, and that chews the cud, among the animals.

7Nevertheless, of those that chew the cud or have cloven hooves, you shall not eat, such as these: the camel, the hare, and the rock hyrax; for they chew the cud but do not have cloven hooves; they are unclean for you.

8Also the swine is unclean for you, because it has cloven hooves, yet does not chew the cud; you shall not eat their flesh or touch their dead carcasses.
