About Biblical Eats

Biblical Eats is a small reference site for the foods, feasts, and fasts found across the Bible. Its purpose is to make everyday details of biblical life easier to see, understand, and explore.

What you will find

  • Food pages describing common ingredients and staples, with historical and scriptural context.
  • Feast pages outlining appointed times, key foods, and patterns of remembrance.
  • Fast pages explaining when fasting occurs, what it involved, and why it mattered.

What this site is not

  • Not a recipe or cooking site.
  • Not a platform for debate or long theological essays.
  • Not an attempt to be exhaustive.

Structure and sources

Each page follows a consistent structure: a short summary, clear references to time and place, relevant Scripture passages, and sources where historical notes are included.

Scripture quotations are from the World English Bible (WEB), a modern public-domain English translation. The WEB is based on the American Standard Version (1901) and is used to allow clear quotation, consistent reference, and free reuse across the site.
