What are Unclean meats?
        UNCLEAN' MEATS
     Hos 9:3. See Clean and Unclean. UNCOVERING the head was a token of mourning and captivity. Lev 10:6; Isa 47:2. UNCTION is used figuratively with reference to the ceremony of anointing, and signifying the communication of a divine grace. 1 John 2:20, 1 John 2:27. UNDERGIRD'ING a vessel means to pass a strong cable around the hull to prevent it from opening. The ship which carried St. Paul to Italy was undergirded. Acts 27:17. Lord Anson mentions a Spanish man-of-war that was saved by throwing overboard one tier of guns and taking six turns of a cable around the ship.
