# General Information:
|
|
|
|
Yahweh continues telling Moses and Aaron which animals the people are to consider unclean.
|
|
|
|
# You must not make yourselves unclean ... you should be made impure by them
|
|
|
|
Yahweh repeats the same idea twice in order to strengthen the command that they are not to eat any unclean animal. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-parallelism]])
|
|
|
|
# You must not make yourselves unclean
|
|
|
|
A person who is unacceptable for God's purposes is spoken of as if he were physically unclean. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
|
|
|
|
# that you should be made impure by them
|
|
|
|
This can be translated in active form. Alternate translation: "so that you are no longer pure because of them" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
