Gill's Notes on the Bible
Only be sure that thou eat not the blood,.... This is repeated again, that they might be careful to observe the law concerning that:
for the blood is the life: which is the reason given for the prohibition of it, :-,
and thou mayest not eat the life with the flesh: by which it seems that the meaning of the law was, that the blood might not be eaten in or with the flesh, but to be let out of it, or the fish not to be eaten raw, but dressed; for there were various laws about eating of blood, which are differently expressed.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Deuteronomy 12:23. For the blood is the life — And the life being offered as an atonement, consequently the blood should not be eaten. Leviticus 17:11, where the subject of the vitality of the blood is largely considered.
