from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
ye shall eat: The prohibition of the fat or suet, which was restricted to animals offered in sacrifice, taught reverence to the altar and ordinances of God; but that of blood, which was extended to all land animals, had especial respect to the atoning blood of the sacrifice, and of the great antitype which the sacrifice prefigured. Leviticus 3:17, Leviticus 17:10-14, Genesis 9:4, 1 Samuel 14:33, 1 Samuel 14:34, Ezekiel 33:25, John 6:53, Acts 15:20, Acts 15:29, Ephesians 1:7, 1 Timothy 4:4
Reciprocal: Leviticus 9:21 - the breasts Leviticus 17:13 - which hunteth Leviticus 19:26 - with the blood Deuteronomy 12:16 - General Deuteronomy 15:23 - General 1 Samuel 14:32 - did eat
Gill's Notes on the Bible
Moreover ye shall eat no manner of blood,.... Of any of the above creatures, or any other, even of any clean creature, and much less of an unclean one:
[whether it be] of fowl or of beast; of all sorts and kinds. Jarchi thinks, the words being thus expressed, the blood of fishes and locusts is excepted, and so lawful to eat:
in any of your dwellings; this shows that this law is not to be restrained to creatures slain in sacrifice in the tabernacle, and to the blood of them, but to be understood of all such as were slain in their own houses for food, and the blood of them.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
No manner of blood - See Leviticus 17:10-15.
