Leviticus 11:12

_ _ Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales, etc. — Under this classification frogs, eels, shellfish of all descriptions, were included as unclean; “many of the latter (shellfish) enjoy a reputation they do not deserve, and have, when plentifully partaken of, produced effects which have led to a suspicion of their containing something of a poisonous nature.”

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Leviticus 11:9-19.
