If an animal didn't chew its cud and have a split hoof, it was unclean.
Some animals were unclean even if they chewed their cud because they did not have a split hoof. These are like the Scribes in the day of Jesus. They knew the Scriptures but it did not change the way they lived.
Others thought they had a split hoof, like the Pharisees who were the most religious people in the day. But their 'righteousness' was not based in the Scriptures that God gave them. They would make up and keep their own rules instead. They were self-righteous.
The Hebrews weren't allowed to eat unclean animals to remind us to avoid these types of teachers. When we eat 'unclean' animals, we remember the Hebrews and are reminded that the Word of God should change our lives. [1
