Leviticus 17:10-12

Laws Against Eating Blood

10“If any one of the house of Israel or of the strangers who sojourn among them aeats any blood, I will bset my face against that person who eats blood and will cut him off from among his people. 11 cFor the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it for you on the altar dto make atonement for your souls, efor it is the blood that makes atonement by the life. 12Therefore I have said to the people of Israel, No person among you shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger who sojourns among you eat blood.
