TWO KINDS — a dual noun meaning a pairing of things that ought not to be paired, and the heading under which the Torah's mixture laws are gathered. Searched consonantally it returns three verses and one of them is a different word: Leviticus 19:19 and Deuteronomy 22:9 are the noun, while Isaiah 42:22's kela'im is PRISONS. ⭐ The two real occurrences do not legislate the same three things. Leviticus forbids breeding two kinds of cattle, sowing a FIELD with two kinds, and wearing sha'atnez; Deuteronomy drops the breeding rule, narrows the field to a VINEYARD, adds a rule Leviticus does not have — plowing with an ox and a donkey together — and keeps the cloth. ⚠ No reason is given for any of them in either book. The explanations on offer (that the laws guard the created boundaries of Genesis 1, that they reserve mixed cloth to the priesthood, that they are deliberately arbitrary) are all readers' work, not the text's. → first discussed at Deut 22:9
