Nope. Not my job to do your word studies for you, but it is my job to teach you how to use Bible aids so you can learn yourself.
1. Go to e-sword.net.
2. Download what works for you (They've got a version for every type of computer and I don't know which one you use.)
3. Install. (If they do, eventually, give you choices of what to install, pick a few versions of the Bible -- ones you like, a KJV+ and a KJV, Strong's Concordance, a few commentaries, dictionaries, etc.)
4. Once installed open it up, click on the binoculars on the menu choices, and type in "pork." (You'll have to check out how that app works, but I figured it out eventually, so I trust you can.) You'll come up with a list of every time that word is used in the Bible. And since, the Israelites didn't eat pork, so would associate it with the word "pig," then do "pig."
5. Once you've learned what you can there, then explore the different reference books you received with the download. I'n thinking maybe Vine's Expository runs down the dietary laws list, or maybe it's Nave's Topical, but someone covered everything you ever wanted to know about any partcualr topic in the Bible.
So, up to you how far you want to go with this. But, it's also up to you to do your own word studies. We aren't here to put in the work for you and a verse or two really just doesn't catch the gist of the whole concept.
Consider this your first day at learning how to swim. I promise I won't let you drown, but you have to get in the water on your own. If you want more help after this, feel free to come back and ask. But really, I'm out to get you to the point of swimming on your own, not to carry you on my back. I'm not a strong enough swimmer to carry, but I can teach the dog paddle. I just did. lol
And, if they do give you choices to download any commentary and any Bible aid you want, but you don't know which ones to get, ask that and some really smart people will teach you that too.
