הזהירנו מלאכול שרץ העוף. והוא אמרו יתעלה במשנה תורה כל שרץ העוף וגו'. ולשון ספרי כל שרץ העוף הוא מצות לא תעשה. ומי שאכל מהם לוקה. (ראה, שם):
Sefaria Edition 2021, Translated by Rabbi Francis Nataf
He prohibited us from eating winged swarming things. And that is His, may He be exalted, saying in Mishneh Torah (Deuteronomy), "All winged swarming things, etc." (Deuteronomy 14:19). And the language of the Sifrei is, "'All winged swarming things' - that is a negative commandment." And one who eats of them is lashed. (See Parashat Shemini; Mishneh Torah, Forbidden Foods 2.)
