Yahweh said,“ Even thus will the children of Israel eat their bread unclean, among the nations where I will drive them.”Then I said,“ Ah Lord Yahweh! Behold, my soul has not been polluted; for from my youth up even until now I have not eaten of that which dies of itself, or is torn of animals. No abominable meat has come into my mouth!”

Hosea 9:3-4
They won’t dwell in Yahweh’s land; but Ephraim will return to Egypt, and they will eat unclean food in Assyria.They won’t pour out wine offerings to Yahweh, neither will they be pleasing to him. Their sacrifices will be to them like the bread of mourners; all who eat of it will be polluted; for their bread will be for their appetite. It will not come into Yahweh’s house.

Leviticus 11:45-47
For I am Yahweh who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God. You shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.“‘ This is the law of the animal, and of the bird, and of every living creature that moves in the waters, and of every creature that creeps on the earth,to make a distinction between the unclean and the clean, and between the living thing that may be eaten and the living thing that may not be eaten.’”

1 Corinthians 10 18-1 Corinthians 10 21
Consider Israel according to the flesh. Don’t those who eat the sacrifices participate in the altar?What am I saying then? That a thing sacrificed to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything?But I say that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons, and not to God, and I don’t desire that you would have fellowship with demons.You can’t both drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You can’t both partake of the table of the Lord and of the table of demons.

1 Corinthians 10 28-1 Corinthians 10 31
But if anyone says to you,“ This was offered to idols,” don’t eat it for the sake of the one who told you, and for the sake of conscience. For“ the earth is the Lord’s, with all its fullness.”Conscience, I say, not your own, but the other’s conscience. For why is my liberty judged by another conscience?If I partake with thankfulness, why am I denounced for something I give thanks for?Whether therefore you eat, or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

1 Corinthians 8 7-1 Corinthians 8 10
However, that knowledge isn’t in all men. But some, with consciousness of the idol until now, eat as of a thing sacrificed to an idol, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.But food will not commend us to God. For neither, if we don’t eat, are we the worse; nor, if we eat, are we the better.But be careful that by no means does this liberty of yours become a stumbling block to the weak.For if a man sees you who have knowledge sitting in an idol’s temple, won’t his conscience, if he is weak, be emboldened to eat things sacrificed to idols?
-
Romans 14:15-17
Yet if because of food your brother is grieved, you walk no longer in love. Don’t destroy with your food him for whom Christ died.Then don’t let your good be slandered,for God’s Kingdom is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.
