You shall not eat any of their flesh [of unclean animals], and you shall not touch their carcasses; they are unclean to you.
Leviticus 11:8
Rashi believed that this command only applies to the priests, but the plain meaning of the text says otherwise. On the other hand, I think that "don't touch their carcasses" is an emphatic repetition of "don't eat them". In other words, "Don't eat them and don't even think about eating them." It's not a prohibition against burying your pet dog. In any case, it's an easy command to keep. If you need to dispose of the body of an unclean animal, use gloves and a shovel.
Yahuah did not tell Mosheh to strike the rock of Horeb. Yahuah told him to speak to the rock, but Mosheh was angry because the people would rather be in slavery than free. Mosheh ruined being in the land of Yisra'êl by hitting the rock instead of speaking to it. Mosheh was a leader and thus held to a higher standard than everyone else. Aharon was the only one to worship the cow and live. He created it out of fear of being murdered by the people. And now all those tribes are in exile slavery where they wanted to be in the first place. More glad than a pig in poop. The people refused to follow Yahuah even when a leader of a state in Babel tried to force them to keep it. How stiff necked are we going to be now? Worshipping idols and calling on them like they are the creator. 14,000 times does Yahuah say to keep His Torah and respect His Name and yet it is the most disrespected command in all of Scripture! People would rather worship Ba'al Gad instead of Yahuah and when you show evidence while they talk of their commentary, they cry wolf. How dare I pull out all the stops? How dare you stand on the side of sin and call yourself righteous. No one is saved until after they die and as a taught one, you are obligated to show me your belief by your works! Otherwise you're no different to an unbeliever.
I glorified you on earth, having accomplished the work that you gave me to do.
John 17:4
The heart of every ministry is to glorify the Father. If you end this life only having accomplished one thing, bringing honor and glory to the name of YHWH, then you have done more than most kings and philosophers.
