Wouldn't #3 especially be one of the
reasons the proibition against eating blood was repeated in Acts?

was it overall
because blood is the lifeline or did i miss
something? Mainly, to be kosher
animals have to be slaughtered according to certain rituals, one of which
involves draining the blood. God probably had several reasons for this
commandment: (1) blood is life, so is symbolic of sacrifice and
eventually Jesus' own blood sacrifice; (2) blood is often quite unsanitary, so
best not eaten; (3) many of the heathen nations used blood in their religious
rituals.
Best wishes,
