Thou shalt not seethe a kid:
The true sense of this passage seems to be that assigned by Dr. Cudworth, from a manuscript comment of a Karaite Jew. "It was a custom with the ancient heathens, when they had gathered in all their fruits, to take a kid, and boil it in the dam's milk; and then in a magical way, to go about and sprinkle all their trees, and fields, and gardens, and orchards with it, thinking by these means, that they should make them fruitful, and bring forth more abundantly in the following year. Wherefore, God forbad his people, the Jews, at the time of their in-gathering, to use any such superstitious or idolatrous rite." "The firstª of the firstfruitsª of thy landª thou shalt bringª ° unto the houseª of the LORDª thy God.ª Thou shalt not¹ seetheª ° a kidª in his mother'sª milk.ª" {Exd 34:26} + "Ye shall not¹ eatª ° [of] any¹ thing that dieth of itself:ª thou shalt giveª ° it unto the strangerª that¹ [is] in thy gates,ª that he may eatª ° it; or¹ thou mayest sellª ° it unto an alien:ª for¹ thou¹ [art] an holyª peopleª unto the LORDª thy God.ª Thou shalt not¹ seetheª ° a kidª in his mother'sª milk.ª" {Deu 14:21} + "A righteousª [man] regardethª ° the lifeª of his beast:ª but the tender merciesª of the wickedª [are] cruel.ª" {Prv 12:10} + "For¹ the customsª of the peopleª [are] vain:ª for¹ [one] cuttethª ° a treeª out of the forest,ª ¹ the workª of the handsª of the workman,ª with the axe.ª" {Jer 10:3}
