This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Ye shall not eat of any thing that dieth of itself - (See on Lev 17:15; see on Lev 22:8).
thou shalt give it unto the stranger that is in thy gates - not a proselyte, for he, as well as an Israelite, was subject to this law; but a heathen traveler or sojourner.
Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother’s milk - This is the third place in which the prohibition is repeated [Exo 23:19; Exo 34:26]. It was pointed against an annual pagan ceremony (see on Exo 23:19; Exo 34:26).
