and you detest them. You shall not eat of their flesh, and you shall detest their carcasses.
KJV
They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination.

Commentary
They shall be even an abomination to you,.... This is repeated again and again, to deter from the eating of such fishes, lest there should be any desire after them:
ye shall not eat of their flesh, here mention is made of the flesh of fishes, as is by the apostle,
Co1 15:39
. Aben Ezra observes, that their wise men say, this is according to the usage of words in those ages:
but you shall have their carcasses in abomination; not only abstain from eating them and touching them, but to express the utmost aversion to them.
