This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





With the blood, i. e. any flesh out of which the blood is not first poured. See 1Sa_14:32. The Jews write, that the Egyptians and other nations, when they offered sacrifices to the devils, did eat part of the sacrifices, beside the blood which was kept in basons for that end, which also they believed to be as it were the special food of the devils.



Nor observe times, to wit, superstitiously, by the observation of the clouds, or stars, or otherwise, by esteeming some days lucky, others unlucky. See Deu_18:10,11 Es 3:7.
