Leviticus 7:19 -- “The flesh that touches any unclean thing shall not be eaten. It shall be burned with fire. And as for the clean flesh, all who are clean may eat of it.”
The object of this commandment, according to Maimonides, was to ensure that due respect should be shown to the sacrifices and to whatever was devoted to His name.*
