Did Jesus declare all animals clean for food? Can Christians now eat pork and shellfish, or have we misunderstood something? This question is in reference to Mark 7:19 in the NIV, which says, "For it doesn't go into his heart but into his stomach, and then out of his body." (In saying this, Jesus declared all foods "clean.") (Mark 7:19 NIV)

Now, look at the same verse in the King James:

"Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging all meats" (Mark 7:19 KJV)

Notice that the phrase "In saying this, Jesus declared all foods clean'" is not present in the King James. This is because it is a translator's note that was added by the translators of the NIV (and a few other modern translations). If you look at the Greek text, you will not find that phrase anywhere. It is not present in any of the Greek manuscripts, it is an addition that was made by the translators.
