Editing Kashrus (section)

===== Animals =====
Not all animals are permitted for eating. The Torah gave signs of purity, by which it is determined which animals are permitted:

Chayos and beheimos - The Torah gave three signs of purity: a. Split hooves - feet are split b. Completely split - the split continues from the foot to where it connects to the leg c. Chews its cud - after swallowing brings up the food to its mouth and chews again

The animal must be shechted according to halacha and undergo various checks (like lung examination) ensuring their kashrus.

[[Fish]] - The signs of purity in fish are: a. Fins - organ on the side of the fish helping it swim b. Scales - rough layer on fish skin, sometimes scales fall off but fish remains kosher. Every fish with scales also has fins.

Learning with a chavrusa - is one of the conditions for acquiring Torah and is beneficial for many matters

In this case - one should increase in the study of maamarim about avodah

Foreign thoughts regarding faith come frequently - from a lack of proper care in eating and drinking kosher foods. [One should check] tefillin and tzitzis

[Give] tzedakah before Shacharis (and also Mincha) without a vow]]
Insects and crawling creatures of all kinds are forbidden to eat.

Animal by-products, such as [[milk]], and [[Jewish Cheese|cheese]], follow individual laws.
