John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Leviticus 11:22

The locust — Locusts, though unusual in our food, were commonly eaten by the Ethiopians, Lybians, Parthians, and other eastern people bordering upon the Jews. And as it is certain the eastern locusts were much larger than ours, so it is probable they were of different qualities, and yielding better nourishment.

[Even] these of them ye may eat; the locust after his kind, and the (f) bald locust after his kind, and the beetle after his kind, and the grasshopper after his kind.
