I did address it, saying it's unreasonable to demand the verse refers to a specific ritual instead of a series of different idolatrous behaviors engaged separately at any given time. I also pointed out Isaiah didn't mention lambchops or any other clean meat: he mentioned pork.
Dual prophecies pertain to both the day of the prophet and the end of time - obviously, what you're referring to pertains to ancient history, just as Jeremiah's "the slain of the Lord shall be in THAT DAY shall be from one end of the Earth even to the other end of the Earth" doesn't pertain to ancient Israel, but to the end of time, right or wrong?
KJV says "swine's flesh" aka those who eat "pork".
While it's good to compare Scripture with Scripture when cases arise that lack clarity, is Isaiah clear about what he's saying?
Yes...he's saying those who willfully engage in unclean acts like idolatrous grove worship and eat unclean meat like pork and mice are going up in smoke, right or wrong?
I surrender and agree. Honestly I’m a picky eater anyways. I’m not a fan of pork to begin with so it doesn’t hurt me to be told I shouldn’t eat it. so if you think I’m fighting to eat my pork…you couldn’t be more wrong.
More and more I come to realize every one is going to have a different interpretation and think theirs is always the right one. I’m not sure how everyone can be right all the time. You asked several times above “right or wrong”? That is a question I ask myself every day so I don’t have an answer for you.
