re: #143 Buck
Sure I can explain. You very often see things only in absolute literals.
That is not the way to read these texts.
To Moses cooking any meat in milk is the same thing. It was a cruel thing to do. It represented an act that was cruel.
Clearly it could never have been that there are bacteria in unpasteurized milk, and that it was a dangerous thing to do, as that was not discovered for thousands of years
Actually, just like anybody else, you have not the slightest idea of how the commandment really originated. You’re simply offering yours (or someone else’s) opinion on this issue.
