Cow:
A cow and her calf were not to be killed on the same day (Lev 22:28; Exd 23:19; Deu 22:6,7). The reason for this enactment is not given. A state of great poverty is described in the words of Isa 7:21-25, where, instead of possessing great resources, a man shall depend for the subsistence of himself and his family on what a single cow and two sheep could yield.
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
