| Leviticus 17:15
| The soul that eateth that which died of itself, or has been caught by a beast, whether he be one of your own country or a stranger, shall wash his clothes and himself with water, and shall be defiled until the evening: and in this manner he shall be made clean.
| Stranger. Perhaps the proselyte of justice, not simply of the gate, for the latter were allowed to eat and purchase what had died of itself, Deuteronomy 14:21. --- Clean, having offered the sacrifice, Leviticus 4:27. But if he ate such things knowingly, or neglected these regulations, he was more severely punished. (Haydock)
