Was Jesus A Vegetarian?

Was Jesus a vegetarian? The Bible states that Jesus ate the Passover lamb.  He was probably a semi-vegetarian while on earth.

Luke 22:7-8 (KJV)



He definitely only ate clean meats, since it was part of God’s law given in Leviticus about eating flesh and He was the author of that law.

And since He was born a Jew and not a Gentile he would not have eaten the meat with the blood in it. He would have eaten the meat after the blood was drained and the fat cut off.

It was a sin to eat the blood -

1 Samuel 14:31-34 (KJV)

31. ... and the people were very faint.




Was Jesus a vegetarian before he came to earth to live and die?

John 1:1-3 states that, Jesus was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God, and all things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. Verse 14, and the word was made flesh and dwelt among us...

Jesus made the earth -

Hebrews 1:1 -2 (KJV)


Was Jesus a Vegetarian?

It was Jesus who provided the vegetarian diet for Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. It was not until after the flood, when the vegetation was gone, that God permitted man to eat the flesh of dead animals. Even when God bought the Israelites out of Egypt he provided vegetarian food (manna) for them.

In heaven is Jesus a Vegetarian?

Jesus was not, is not, and will not be in heaven killing living creatures for food.

There is a tree of life in heaven which bares twelve manner of fruit.

Revelation 22:1-2 (KJV)



In the earth made new we will plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them. Even the animals will be vegetarian.

Isaiah 65:21 & 25 (KJV)



Was Jesus a vegetarian? Absolutely; Jesus was a vegetarian before he came to this earth to die for our sins and after he left this earth and returned to heaven as our Heavenly High Priest to intercede on our behalf.
