DEUTERONOMY 12:16 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Only ye shall not eat the blood; ye shall pour it upon the earth as water.”
But you must not eat the blood; pour it out on the ground like water — the blood prohibition (the Hebrew lo tochal et haddam) is absolute and applies to all meat-eating, not merely sacrifice. Blood, understood as the seat of life (the nephesh), must not be consumed.
