Re food:
"And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat."
Using "Thou shalt not kill" alongside Genesis 1:29 is a powerful way to challenge those who claim to follow biblical teachings yet ignore the ethical implications of harming animals. It is a gentle but thought-provoking reminder of compassion’s central role in faith.
