To Be Clean or Not to be Clean

Leviticus 11 is about the foods permitted and forbidden for Israel. I have always understood the practical aspect (foods forbidden have been shown to actually be unsafe heath wise especially when not prepared correctly). However today I learned the Spiritual lesson... Consider this... An animal was clean based on the way that it "walked" (i.e. cloven hooves) and the way it ate (i.e. chewing the cud). A question that came up in my study was this, "Are we divided in our own personal walk?" Jesus said, "man shall not live on bread alone but by every word of God." James said, "be doers of the word and not hearers only deceiving yourselves." So "chew" on that today, and "walk" accordingly!!!
