Summary

Why is there such controversy regarding this topic? What does the Bible say about eating pork? Doesn't the Old Testament forbid certain foods? On this week's episode of Godsplaining, Fr. Patrick and Fr. Joseph-Anthony dive into Leviticus and explain the Old Testament view of forbidden foods and explain whether or not modern Christians can validly consume pork. Why does God forbid foods at all? The friars answer these questions and more on this week's episode of Godsplaining!
