8 ‎[1] Those whose brains are empty explain the verse in Ezekiel, which reads, *The priests shall not eat of any thing that dieth of itself, or is torn, whether it be fowl or beast* (Ezek. 44:31), as meaning that the priests shall not eat anything brought down or torn by animals or fowl. However, this is nonsense, for the Torah states all that dies of itself or is torn he shall not eat. The meaning is if he eats he shall not minister.
Version: Ibn Ezra's commentary on the Pentateuch, tran. and annot. by H. Norman Strickman and Arthur M. Silver. Menorah Pub., 1988-2004
