Squirrel is not mentioned. That was a law for the Levites. ... not the gentiles. And that was the old covenant ... we live in the new covenant. That law hasn't been in effect for 2500 years.

The reason the verses seem confusing to some is because they are written by different people with different personalities.

Luke for instance, was a physician.
Paul made tents.
Peter was a fisherman.

... Just to name a few.


They did not lose their personal identity or background. This allows for the varied styles and individuality of expression.

Amos, a herdsman (Amos 1:1; 7:14-15), makes many references
to the land (chapter 3:4-5, 12; 4:11; 5:19; 6:12; etc.).

Luke, a physician and educated man (Colossians 4:14), wrote with an exactness and skill (Luke 1:1-4).

Peter, a fisherman (Luke 5:7), was "unlearned and ignorant" (Acts 4:13); he wrote with a simplicity of style.

The epistles of Paul, a religious intellectual and zealot (Romans 9:1-3;Galatians 1:14), are written in a style that Peter said to many appears "hard to be understood" (2 Peter 3:16).

The Authors are Peter,Paul,John,Matthew,Luke,Jude,Mark,James,and John the Revelationist.
