Devarim: Re'eh: Who were the designated Shochatim while in the Desert?

Did you know...?

Ch.12, vs.20

Who were the designated Shochatim while in the Desert?

כִּֽי־יַרְחִיב֩ ה' אֱלֹ-הֶ֥יךָ אֶֽת־גְּבֽוּלְךָ֮ כַּאֲשֶׁ֣ר דִּבֶּר־לָךְ֒ וְאָמַרְתָּ֙ אֹכְלָ֣ה בָשָׂ֔ר כִּֽי־תְאַוֶּ֥ה נַפְשְׁךָ֖ לֶאֱכֹ֣ל בָּשָׂ֑ר בְּכָל־אַוַּ֥ת נַפְשְׁךָ֖ תֹּאכַ֥ל בָּשָֽׂר׃

When the LORD enlarges your territory, as He has promised you, and you say, “I shall eat some meat,” for you have the urge to eat meat, you may eat meat whenever you wish.

No one.

The laws of Shechita were not observed in the desert.

(Chulin 16-17)
