Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Ye shall eat no manner of fat, of ox, or of sheep, or of goat.
The verse forbids the children of Israel to eat any manner of fat of ox, or of sheep, or of goat. It is a special direction from the Lord. The prohibition of fat stands together with His special direction against consuming blood.
Eating animal fat produces diseased blood and causes human illness. The reason is that fat and blood cannot make good flesh and blood. Disregarding this direction brings disease and also brings other difficulties.
