Gill's Notes on the Bible
[The carcasses] of every beast which divideth the hoof, and is not cloven footed,.... As the camel:
nor cheweth the cud; though it may divide the hoof, as the swine; and on the other hand, such as may chew the cud, and yet not dividing the hoof, as the coney and hare; for the Scripture here, as Aben Ezra observes again, uses a short and concise way of speaking: these
[are] unclean unto you; to be reckoned by them such, and neither to be eaten nor touched:
everyone that toucheth them shall be unclean; until the evening; and obliged to washing, though not expressed: this is not to be understood of touching them while alive, as some Sadducees or Karaites understand it, according to Aben Ezra; for camels, horses, mules, c. might be, and were rode upon, and so touched but of them when dead, or their carcases, as is rightly supplied in the beginning of the verse; and the Jewish writers c understand this of the flesh of the carcass only, not of the bones, horns, and hoofs, which, they say, do not defile, only the flesh: this is repeated from Leviticus 11:8.
c Misn. Edaiot, c. 6. sect. 3. & Maimon. & Bartenora in ib.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Unclean - If the due purification was omitted at the time, through negligence or forgetfulness, a sin-offering was required. See Leviticus 5:2.
