Eating of Blood: The Quinisext Council (Council of Trullo) A.D. 692.

What did the Council of Trullo (The Quinisext Council) A.D. 692, teach concerning the eating of blood.

Canon 67

“The divine Scripture commands us to abstain from blood, from things strangled, and from fornication. Those therefore who on account of a dainty stomach prepare by any art for food the blood of any animal, and so eat it, we punish suitably. If anyone henceforth venture to eat in any way the blood of an animal, if he be a clergyman, let him be deposed; if a layman, let him be cut off.”
