Religious restrictions on the consumption of pork : ウィキペディア英語版 | Religious restrictions on the consumption of pork
Religious restrictions on the consumption of pork are a tradition in the Ancient Near East. Swine were prohibited in ancient Syria〔Lucian of Samosata notes the prohibition of pork for followers of the Dea Syria (Atargatis, the 'Syrian goddess') in ''De dea Syria'', noted in Jan N. Bremmer, "Attis: A Greek God in Anatolian Pessinous and Catullan Rome", ''Mnemosyne'', Fourth Series, 57.5, (2004:534–573) p. 538.〕 and Phoenicia,〔As the pagan Porphyry of Tyre noted in ''De abstinentia ab esu animalium'', late third century CE.〕 and the pig and its flesh represented a taboo observed, Strabo noted, at Comana in Pontus〔Strabo, xii.8.9.〕 A lost poem of Hermesianax, reported centuries later by the traveller Pausanias, reported an etiological myth of Attis destroyed by a supernatural boar to account for the fact that "in consequence of these events the Galatians who inhabit Pessinous do not touch pork".〔Noted in Bremmer 2004:538 and notes. Bremmer notes that the taboo regarding pork for followers of Attis is reported in Julian, ''Orationes v.17.〕 It is speculated that chickens supplanted pigs as a more portable and efficient source of protein leading to the religious restrictions. Such restrictions exist in Jewish dietary laws (Kashrut) and in Islamic dietary laws (Halal). They are mandated by the Hebrew Bible, and the Muslim Quran, respectively. Among many Christian sects, the restrictions were interpreted to be lifted by Peter's vision of a sheet with animals. However, Seventh-day Adventists consider pork taboo, along with other foods forbidden by Jewish law. The Ethiopian Orthodox Church〔Charles Kong Soo (Ethiopian Holy Week clashes with Christians' ) 21 April 2011 Trinidad and Tobago Guardian Retrieved 11 March 2012〕 does not permit pork consumption, while the Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria is divided on the subject. ==Prohibitions in the Hebrew Bible==
