所 以 ， 你 们 要 把 洁 净 和 不 洁 净 的 禽 兽 分 别 出 来 ； 不 可 因 我 给 你 们 分 为 不 洁 净 的 禽 兽 ， 或 是 滋 生 在 地 上 的 活 物 ， 使 自 己 成 为 可 憎 恶 的 。

所以你們要把潔淨的和不潔淨的走獸，潔淨的和不潔淨的飛禽分別出來；你們不可因著那些我為你們分別出來，不潔淨的走獸、飛禽，或任何在地上爬行的動物，使自己成為可憎惡的。

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Ye shall therefore put difference between clean beasts and unclean,.... The ten clean ones, as Aben Ezra observes, and all the rest that are unclean, according to the law before given, Leviticus 11:3, by using the one for food, and not the other, and so the Targum of Jonathan, ye shall separate between the beast which is fit for food, and that which is not fit for food:

and between unclean fowls and clean; and which the same Targum interprets, what is unfit to eat and what is fit, even all that are particularly mentioned as unclean, and not fit for food, in

Leviticus 11:13 and all the rest not excepted to as clean and fit for food, which was one way and means God made use of to separate them from other nations, and so preserve them from their idolatrous and evil works:

and ye shall not make your souls abominable by beast, or by fowl, or by any manner of living thing that creepeth on the ground; that is, by eating them, contrary to the command of God, which would make them abominable in his sight; see Leviticus 11:43; every sin or transgression of this law being so to him:

which I have separated from you as unclean; which by law he had commanded them to abstain from the use of, as clean, and not fit to be eaten.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The ground is here again stated on which all these laws of holiness should be obeyed. See Leviticus 18:24-30 note.

Leviticus 20:24

Compare the margin reference.

Leviticus 20:25, Leviticus 20:26

The distinction between clean and unclean for the whole people, and not for any mere section of it, was one great typical mark of “the kingdom of priests, the holy nation.” See the Leviticus 11:42 note.

Leviticus 20:25

Any manner of living thing that creepeth - Rather, any creeping thing; that is, any vermin. See Leviticus 11:20-23. The reference in this verse is to dead animals, not to the creatures when alive.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Leviticus 20:25. Between clean beasts and unclean — See the notes on Leviticus 11:1-47.
