If that was the concern, it seems to me that there would be no issue with a girl who grew up eating them continuing to eat them after marrying a layman. #ParshaChat

Unless they didn't understand the why behind the rule? Also, were the girls ever allowed to eat them? Or did they restrict certain parts only to the sons who might grow up to be priests, since the girls would not become a priest? #ParshaChat

Unmarried girls and widows who returned to their fathers' house did, yes. #ParshaChat bsky.app/profile/ruti...

One of the things I'm thinking about a lot lately is how if they made a rule to not do something, that implies that folk were doing it and needed the rule to make it more clear. Leviticus is all about the rules, & I'm thinking about what the rules imply about the behaviors #ParshaChat
