Or, crawling things that crawl. So also in vv. 41-43 (cf. vv. 31, 44, 46). All the creatures that crawl on the earth were unclean (vv. 41-44). Creatures that go on their stomach or on all fours or have many feet (v. 42) signify Satan with all the evil spirits and demons, persons who are filled with Satan, who contact evil spirits and demons, and persons who live in the world and cleave to the world, being unable to sever themselves from the world (cf. Gen. 3:14; Rev. 12:9; Luke 10:19 and note Luke 10:192b).
