Leviticus 7:22-27 and Luke 13:18-21 (NLT)

Leviticus 7:22-27
Eating Fat and Blood Forbidden
22  Then the Lord said to Moses,
23  “Give the following instructions to the people of Israel. You must never eat fat, whether from cattle, sheep, or goats.
24  The fat of an animal found dead or torn to pieces by wild animals must never be eaten, though it may be used for any other purpose.
25  Anyone who eats fat from an animal presented as a special gift to the Lord will be cut off from the community.
26  No matter where you live, you must never consume the blood of any bird or animal.
27  Anyone who consumes blood will be cut off from the community.”

Luke 13:18-21
The Parables of the Mustard Seed and the Yeast
18  Then Jesus said, “What is the Kingdom of God like? How can I illustrate it? 
19  It is like a tiny mustard seed that a man planted in a garden; it grows and becomes a tree, and the birds make nests in its branches.”
20  He also asked, “What else is the Kingdom of God like? 
21  It is like the yeast a woman used in making bread. Even though she put only a little yeast in three measures of flour, it permeated every part of the dough.”
