Book excerpt: Flora & Fauna of the Bible is an engaging and informative study of all the most important plants and animals mentioned in the Bible, relating the references both to Bible times and to wildlife in the Holy Land now and, where appropriate, explaining the message or symbolism behind the texts. The Prologue sets the scene by giving a simple description of the topography and climate of Israel, so that readers - wherever they are - may get a sense of what the place is like. The following two sections of the book cover first the plants, then the animals mentioned in the Bible. A wide range of plant life, including wild and cultivated trees, shrubs and herbs is covered and all creatures, great and small, from whales to ants. Mention of the flora and fauna may be used as metaphors in Jesus' teaching or simply referred to as part of the everyday life of the time.

Download or read book Bible and Ecology written by Richard Bauckham and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this well-argued and timely book, Bauckham considers the relationship of humans to the rest of creation.He argues that there is much more to the Bible’s understanding of this relationship than the mandate of human dominion given in Genesis 1, which has too often been used as a justification for domination and exploitation of the earth’s resources. He also critiques the notion of stewardship as being on the one hand presumptuous, and on the other too general a term to explain our key responsibilities in caring for the earth. In countering this, he considers other biblical perspectives, including the book of Job, the Psalms and the Gospels, and re-evaluates the biblical tradition of ‘dominion’, in favour of a ‘community of creation’.With its clear analysis and thought-provoking conclusions, The Bible and Ecology is an essential read for anyone interested in a biblically grounded approach to ecology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2007 in the subject American Studies - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,7, University of Constance (Universität Konstanz), course: Another Anthropology. Visual and textual Representations of Animals - ethical and aesthetical perspectives, language: English, abstract: God is the creator of everything. He breathed life into animals and man, and made them living souls. “The Lord is good to everyone. He showers compassion on all His creation.” (Psalm 145:9) God created man and animals according to His infinite love and wisdom. God values everything He created, including animals, and He wants only the best for them. In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth, and He was pleased with all He made. But He wanted more. He wanted relationship and fellowship. His desire to pour out, and receive love in return remained unfulfilled. So He decided to create animals and man. God created animals before he created man, and placed them in the perfect serenity that was then earth. He has breathed the same breath of life into all living beings from the beginning of time through today.

Book excerpt: "In order to help translators deal with certain aspects of their problems of finding satisfactory equivalents, this special volume on the fauna and flora of the Bible has been prepared. As may be readily noted from the system employed in dealing with the various terms, the names of animals and plants are listed alphabetically in English, based on what is seemingly the best general equivalent of the corresponding Hebrew and / or Greek terms. The suggested interpretations or renderings are not, however, restricted to the equivalents employed as headings ... Immediately following the general term is the scientific designation, or designations if two or more possible interpretations of a Hebrew or Greek term are involved ... Wherever possible or relevant, both the genus and the species of plants and animals are given, but often on the genus is mentioned, since their may be no way of knowing precisely which species is involved. Furthermore, in many instances Hebrew and Greek terms designate classes of animals and plants rather than being named for a particular species ..."--Introduction.
Download or read book A Dictionary of Bible Plants written by Lytton John Musselman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-12-19 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes and illustrates each plant mentioned in the Old and New Testaments and the Apocrypha. The book draws on Lytton John Musselman's extensive field investigations from Beirut to Borneo and from the Atlas to the Zagros mountains and includes his original images of each plant. Incorporating new research on their use, the text also reviews recent analytical studies of plants used in materials and technology as well as ancient grains, beer production, medicine, tensile materials, soap, and other articles. Based on these materials, Musselman provides several new plant identifications for controversial biblical passages. In addition, the book surveys the history of Bible plant literature from the time of the Greeks and Romans to the present and reviews and correlates it with Bible plant hermeneutics. To aid readers, extensive references for further study are provided, along with an index to all verses containing references to these plants, which enables the reader to quickly locate the plant of interest in its textual setting.
Download or read book Bible Animals written by Alison Brown and published by Banner of Truth. This book was released on 2012 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few children can ignore an inquisitive donkey looking over a gate or the wriggling puppy they meet in the street. Animal stories also capture their attention, and are usually those with which younger children identify most readily. The description of the animals in Noah's Ark is surely the one least likely to be forgotten! Bible Animals (for ages 5+) goes one step further; it uses a collection of animal stories drawn from Scripture, to present important, basic Bible truths. What is sin? Why did Jesus die? Why do bad things sometimes happen? Why is obedience important? These are issues about which positive God honouring attitudes can be formed in the ealy years. Sharing the pages of this original book with your child provides an opportunity to begin laying these vital foundations. An animal picture to colour is provided with each lesson.
