כל עוף החולק את רגליו טמא

THE CHARACTERISTICS OF BIRDS ARE NOT STATED, BUT THE SAGES HAVE SAID, EVERY BIRD THAT SEIZES ITS PREY<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Heb. , to tread or attack with the claws. Here it has a special and technical meaning and various interpretations have been suggested: (i) a bird which seizes prey in flight without alighting upon the ground (R. Gershom) ; (ii) a bird which holds down the prey with its claws whilst it pecks away with its beak to eat it (Rashi and Maim.) ; (iii) a bird which eats its prey whilst it still lives and does not wait until it dies (Tosaf. s.v. xrusv p. 61a) .');"><sup>11</sup></span>
