Ask the Animals: Developing a Biblical Animal Hermeneutic - Paperback
Description
by Arthur W. Walker-Jones (Editor), Suzanna R. Millar (Editor)
Despite the prevalence of animals in the Bible, most scholars have viewed them merely as metaphors, passive objects, or background embellishment to the human experience. This collection seeks to move beyond this traditional view of biblical animals by engaging the growing interdisciplinary field of animal studies. Contributors showcase the breadth and depth of inquiry that animal studies can foster in biblical studies as well as what animal studies can gain from a more rigorous engagement with biblical texts. Together the essays offer an animal hermeneutic that supports the flourishing of all creatures.
