Were we to take this logic to its illogical conclusion, then we might suppose that prayer over skunk meat, certain poisonous types of frogs, snakes and salamanders as well as poisonous mushrooms would make them edible. Of course, this is ridiculous. Is this really what Paul, the orthodox Jewish Torah scholar, is teaching? Once again, understanding Scripture in its context is essential to obtaining its proper interpretation. These verses read:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which Elohim has created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth. <strong>For every creature of Elohim is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving<\/strong>, <strong>for it is sanctified by the Word of Elohim and prayer. <\/strong>(emphasis added)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What does this passage really say? Does it say that the meat we eat is sanctified (i.e. set aside for special use) <em>only<\/em> through the act of prayer?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In verse five Paul teaches that the meat we eat is sanctified through prayer <em>and <\/em>the Word of Elohim. When Paul wrote this letter to Timothy there was no Testimony of Yeshua or New Testament\u2014only the Tanakh or Old Testament. Where in the Tanakh do we find which meats YHVH has set aside or sanctified for man as edible? Leviticus chapter eleven, of course. Furthermore, in verse three above Paul talks about \u201cthem which believe and know <em>the truth<\/em>.\u201d How does Scripture define <em>truth<\/em>? Yeshua defined <em>truth<\/em> as <em>the Word of Elohim<\/em> (namely the Hebrew Scriptures, which is all that existed at that time) (John 17:7). The Tanakh define truth as the Torah-law of YHVH (which contain YHVH\u2019s biblical kosher laws pertaining to clean and unclean meats; see Ps 119:142 and 151).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So when examined in its proper context this passage in 2 Timothy in no way teaches that it is scripturally permissible for believers to indulge in unclean meats. On the contrary, this passage in fact validates the biblical kosher laws as outlined in the Torah and shows clearly, if we let Scripture speak for itself and define its own terms instead of reading into it our own meanings, that the biblical dietary laws are for believers today.<br \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"evernoteSiteMemory\"><a href=\"javascript:\" onclick=\"Evernote.doClip({title: 'Does praying over your unclean meat now make it clean to eat?',url: 'https:\/\/hoshanarabbah.org\/blog\/2019\/08\/31\/does-praying-over-your-unclean-meat-now-make-it-clean-to-eat\/',contentID: 'post-15286',suggestTags: 'Pork,Unclean Meats',providerName: 'Hoshana Rabbah Blog',styling: 'text' });return false\" class=\"evernoteSiteMemoryLink\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.evernote.com\/article-clipper.png\" \nclass=\"evernoteSiteMemoryButton\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evernoteSiteMemoryClear\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1 Timothy 4:3\u20135, Foods.
