Meat and Blood

Genesis 9:4 "But flesh with the life thereof, [which is] the blood thereof, shall ye not eat."

Leviticus 17:10 "And whatsoever man [there be] of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, that eateth any manner of blood; I will even set my face against that soul that eateth blood, and will cut him off from among his people. 11 For the life of the flesh [is] in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it [is] the blood [that] maketh an atonement for the soul. 12 Therefore I said unto the children of Israel, No soul of you shall eat blood, neither shall any stranger that sojourneth among you eat blood. 13 And whatsoever man [there be] of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among you, which hunteth and catcheth any beast or fowl that may be eaten; he shall even pour out the blood thereof, and cover it with dust. 14 For [it is] the life of all flesh; the blood of it [is] for the life thereof: therefore I said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall eat the blood of no manner of flesh: for the life of all flesh [is] the blood thereof: whosoever eateth it shall be cut off."

Leviticus 19:26 "Ye shall not eat [any thing] with the blood: neither shall ye use enchantment, nor observe times."

Deuteronomy 12:23 "Only be sure that thou eat not the blood: for the blood [is] the life; and thou mayest not eat the life with the flesh. 24 Thou shalt not eat it; thou shalt pour it upon the earth as water. 25 Thou shalt not eat it; that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, when thou shalt do [that which is] right in the sight of the LORD. 26 Only thy holy things which thou hast, and thy vows, thou shalt take, and go unto the place which the LORD shall choose: 27 And thou shalt offer thy burnt offerings, the flesh and the blood, upon the altar of the LORD thy God: and the blood of thy sacrifices shall be poured out upon the altar of the LORD thy God, and thou shalt eat the flesh."

Micah 3:5 "Thus saith the LORD concerning the prophets that make my people err, that bite with their teeth, and cry, Peace; and he that putteth not into their mouths, they even prepare war against him."

Habakkuk 2:7 "Shall they not rise up suddenly that shall bite thee, and awake that shall vex thee, and thou shalt be for booties unto them?"

Galatians 5:15 "But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another."

• The Bible forbids eating meat with blood if we believe the private interpretation of Genesis 9:4 "4 But flesh with the life(בְּנַפְשׁ֥וֹ) thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat(תֹאכֵֽלוּ׃)." But it is "the life is in the blood" of another we should not consume. This prohibition is poorly understood. see Leviticus 17:10-14 "the life of the flesh is in the blood", Deuteronomy 12:23-27 "Eat not the blood" and "thou shalt offer thy burnt offerings, the flesh and the blood... upon the altar of the LORD. "
• Acts 15:20, 29 "... they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood."
