The clean animals of the Bible are the ones that 'chew the cud'. The cow eats something and regurgitate it to chew it again and again until everything is digested. If you are a clean animal, you learn from God's word, then you 'chew the cud', thinking about it over and over again. The symbol of the cow reminds us to learn from people who spend time meditating (or chewing) on God’s word.
