Food @ Originally the Creator granted the use of the vegetable world for food to man Genesis:1:29), with the exception mentioned (2:17). The use of animal food was probably not unknown to the antediluvians. There is, however, a distinct law on the subject given to Noah after the Deluge Genesis:9:2-5). Various articles of food used in the patriarchal age are mentioned in Genesis:18:6-8 Genesis:25:34 Genesis:27:3 -4; 43:11. Regarding the food of the Israelites in Egypt, see Exodus:16:3; Numbers:11:5. In the wilderness their ordinary food was miraculously supplied in the manna. They had also quails Exodus:16:11-13; Numbers:11:31). In the law of Moses there are special regulations as to the animals to be used for food Leviticus:11; Deuteronomy:14:3-21). The Jews were also forbidden to use as food anything that had been consecrated to idols Exodus:34:15), or animals that had died of disease or had been torn by wild beasts Exodus:22:31; Leviticus:22:8). (See also for other restrictions Exodus:23:19 Exodus:29:13-22; Leviticus:3:4-9 Leviticus:9:18-19 Leviticus:22:8 ; Deuteronomy:14:21.) But beyond these restrictions they had a large grant from God Deuteronomy:14:26 Deuteronomy:32:13-14). Food was prepared for use in various ways. The cereals were sometimes eaten without any preparation Leviticus:23:14; Deuteronomy:23:25; 2Kings:4:42). Vegetables were cooked by boiling Genesis:25:30 Genesis:25:34 2Kings:4:38-39), and thus also other articles of food were prepared for use Genesis:27:4; Proverbs:23:3; Ezekiel:24:10; Luke:24:42; John:21:9). Food was also prepared by roasting Exodus:12:8; Leviticus:2:14). (See COOK.)
