Why jews eat pork and shelfish?
Jews do not eat pork or shellfish. This is because these animals are considered to be unclean according to Jewish dietary laws, which are set out in the Torah.
Here are some specific passages from the Torah that prohibit the consumption of pork and shellfish:
Leviticus 11:7-8: "And the pig, because it parts the hoof and is cloven-footed, but does not chew the cud, is unclean to you. You shall not eat any of their flesh, and you shall not touch their carcasses."
Deuteronomy 14:10-11: "And of those that are in the waters, you may eat all that have fins and scales. But anything in the seas or the rivers that does not have fins and scales, of the swarming creatures of the waters and of the living creatures that are in the waters, they are detestable to you."
