And upon whatsoever any of them, when they are dead, doth fall, it shall be unclean; whether it be any vessel of wood, or raiment, or skin, or sack, whatsoever vessel it be, wherein any work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the even; so it shall be cleansed.

Levitical Dietary Law

It could be interpreted as a simple enumeration of creatures for other purposes within the broader context of Levitical law, such as for ritual purity or sacrifice, rather than directly addressing diet.
