So do you think that the commandment about not eating shellfish came from illiterate desert goat ropers instead of the educated bigwigs in the big city?

Take your fish traveling by donkey and add in the desert heat and no refrigeration system and you could probably have smelled them coming from miles away.
Jesus and his buddies were always going fishing. But they only ate fish that have scales. They threw everything else into the trash as being unfit to eat.
