[Faith-talk] diet and faith

[Linda Mentink]

Hi Ashley,

You might find some help on the Optasia Ministries website.

There are still religions today that eat according to the Old 
Testament dietary laws, not putting any stock in Peter's vision 
in the New Testament. As I understand it, pork is not the most 
healthful meat we can eat.

Blessings,

Linda

Hi all,

I’m in a world  literature class and we have read some 
religious texts including exerpts of the Quran, Bible, and Hindu 
text.

I need to compare the dietary restrictions of Leviticus vs the 
Quran which is in Surat 5.

So can anyone recommend an online study Bible which might explain 
some history or a historic commentary of it? BTW chapter 11 of 
leviticus is the kosher laws I’m reviewing.

Also, we have one or more Muslims here. Please help me understand 
your perspective.
Why don’t you eat pork? Was the pig a symbol of something bad 
when the Qur’an was written?


Thanks.

Ashley
