In the Old Testament, the hare is classified among the animals that are considered unclean and therefore not suitable for consumption by the Israelites. This classification is found in the books of Leviticus and Deuteronomy, which outline the dietary restrictions that were to be observed by the people of Israel.<br><br><b>Biblical References:</b><br><br>1. <b><a href="/leviticus/11-6.htm">Leviticus 11:6</a> :</b> "The hare, though it chews the cud, does not have a split hoof; it is unclean for you." This verse is part of a larger passage in <a href="/bsb/leviticus/11.htm">Leviticus 11</a>, where God provides Moses and Aaron with a list of clean and unclean animals. The hare is specifically mentioned as unclean because, although it appears to chew the cud, it does not have the divided hoof required for an animal to be considered clean.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/deuteronomy/14-7.htm">Deuteronomy 14:7</a> :</b> "But of those that chew the cud or have split hooves, you are not to eat the following: the camel, the rabbit, or the hare." In this passage, the dietary laws are reiterated to the Israelites as part of Moses' final instructions before they enter the Promised Land. The hare is again listed among the animals that are not to be eaten.<br><br><b>Cultural and Historical Context:</b><br><br>In ancient Israel, dietary laws were an integral part of the covenant relationship between God and His people. These laws served not only as a means of maintaining physical health but also as a way to set the Israelites apart from surrounding nations. The distinction between clean and unclean animals was a constant reminder of the holiness required by God.<br><br>The classification of the hare as unclean is based on its physical characteristics. While the hare appears to chew the cud, it does not meet the full criteria of having a split hoof. This distinction is significant in the context of the Levitical laws, which often use physical attributes to symbolize spiritual truths.<br><br><b>Symbolism and Interpretation:</b><br><br>From a symbolic perspective, the dietary laws, including the prohibition against eating hares, can be seen as a call to discernment and obedience. The Israelites were to be mindful of God's commands in every aspect of their lives, including their diet. The distinction between clean and unclean animals served as a metaphor for the spiritual purity and separation from sin that God desired for His people.<br><br>In the broader narrative of Scripture, these laws also foreshadow the coming of Christ, who fulfills the law and brings a new covenant. In the New Testament, the dietary restrictions are lifted for believers, as seen in <a href="/acts/10-15.htm">Acts 10:15</a> : "The voice spoke to him a second time: 'Do not call anything impure that God has made clean.'" This shift highlights the transition from the old covenant to the new, where the focus is on the purity of the heart rather than adherence to dietary laws.<br><br><b>Conclusion:</b><br><br>The mention of the hare in the Bible, though brief, is part of a larger theological framework that underscores the importance of holiness, obedience, and the distinct identity of God's people. Through these dietary laws, the Israelites were reminded of their unique relationship with God and their calling to live according to His standards.<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Hare</span><p>(Heb. <i>arnebeth</i>) occurs only in (<a href="/leviticus/11-6.htm">Leviticus 11:6</a>) and Deuteronomy 14:7 Amongst the animals disallowed as food by the Mosaic law. The hare is at this day called <i>arnel</i> by the Arabs in Palestine and Syria. It was erroneously thought by the ancient Jews to have chewed the cud.

The habit of this animal is to grind its teeth and move its jaw as if it actually chewed the cud. But, like the cony (q.v.), it is not a ruminant with four stomachs, but a rodent like the squirrel, rat, etc. Moses speaks of it according to appearance. It is interdicted because, though apparently chewing the cud, it did not divide the hoof.<p>There are two species in Syria, (1) the Lepus Syriacus or Syrian hare, which is like the English hare; and (2) the Lepus Sinaiticus, or hare of the desert.

The camel, the hare and the coney are unclean, `because they chew the cud but part not the hoof,' the swine, "because he parteth the hoof. but cheweth not the cud." The hare and the coney are not ruminants, but might be supposed to be from their habit of almost continually moving their jaws. Both are freely eaten by the Arabs. Although 'arnebheth occurs only in the two places cited, there is no doubt that it is the hare. Septuagint has dasupous, "rough-footed," which, while not the commonest Greek word (lagos), refers to the remarkable fact that in hares and rabbits the soles of the feet are densely covered with hair. 'Arnab, which is the common Arabic word for "hare," is from the same root as the Hebrew 'arnebheth.<br><br> <a href="/leviticus/11-4.htm">Leviticus 11:4-7</a>: verse 4, English Versions of the Bible "camel"; Septuagint ton kamelon; Vulgate (Jerome's Latin Bible, 390-405 A.D.) camelus; Hebrew ha-gamal. <a href="/leviticus/11-5.htm">Leviticus 11:5</a>, English Versions of the Bible "coney"; Septuagint ton dasupoda; Vulgate, choerogryllus; Hebrew ha-shapan. <a href="/leviticus/11-6.htm">Leviticus 11:6</a>, English Versions of the Bible "hare"; Septuagint ton choirogruillion Vulgate, lepus; Hebrew ha-arnebeth. <a href="/leviticus/11-7.htm">Leviticus 11:7</a>, English Versions of the Bible "swine"; Septuagint ton hun; Vulgate, sus; Hebrew ha-chazir.<br><br> <a href="/deuteronomy/14-7.htm">Deuteronomy 14:7</a>: English Versions of the Bible "camel"; Septuagint ton kamelon Vulgate, camelum; Hebrew hagamal; English Versions of the Bible "hare"; Septuagint dasupoda; Vulgate, leporem; Hebrew ha'arnebeth; English Versions of the Bible "coney"; Septuagint choirogrullion; Vulgate, choerogryllum; Hebrew hashaphan.<br><br> <a href="/deuteronomy/14-8.htm">Deuteronomy 14:8</a>: English Versions of the Bible "swine"; Septuagint ton hun Vulgate, sus; Hebrew hacheziyr.<br><br>It is evident from the above and from the meanings of dasupous and chorogrullios as given in Liddell and Scott, that the order of Septuagint in <a href="/leviticus/11-5.htm">Leviticus 11:5, 6</a> does not follow the Hebrew, but has apparently assimilated the order of that of <a href="/deuteronomy/14-7.htm">Deuteronomy 14:7, 8</a>.

Hares have longer legs and ears and are swifter than rabbits. Their young are hairy and have their eyes open, while rabbits are born naked and blind. Hares are widely distributed in the Northern Hemisphere, and there is one species in South America. Rabbits are apparently native to the Western Mediterranean countries, although they have been distributed by man all over the world.<br><br>Lepus syriacus, the common hare of Syria and Palestine, differs somewhat from the European hare. Lepus judeae is cited by Tristram from Northeastern Palestine, and he also notes three other species from the extreme south.<br><br>Alfred Ely Day<p><a name="heb" id="heb"></a><div class="vheading2">Strong's Hebrew</div><a href="/hebrew/768.htm"><span class="l">768. arnebeth -- a <b>hare</b></span></a><br><b>...</b> arnebeth. 769 . a <b>hare</b>.
