Genesis 3:21 states that the Lord made Adam and Eve coats of skins, so apparently He condones the murder of animals. In the very next chapter (4), we find the story of Adam and Eve's sons, Cain and Abel. Abel was a keeper of sheep, it tells us in Genesis 4:2, who offered one of the firstlings of his flock unto the Lord. I think PETA would have a problem with this. We find that animal sacrifices are performed repeatedly since this time. Jewish tradition states that the meat from these sacrifices be distributed among the priests and the people of Israel.

I wouldn't go looking in the Old Testament as your primer in vegan living.
