Bible Animals; Being A Description Of Every Living Creature Mentioned In The Scripture, From The Ape To The Coral. - Paperback

by J. G. Wood (Author)

A compact, contemplative invitation to the animal world, reinvigorated for today's readers. An illustrated guide that speaks with the clarity and wonder of a Victorian natural history, yet written for modern curiosity and reflection. Bible Animals by J. G. Wood is more than a catalogue of creatures mentioned in Scripture; it is a living conversation between faith and the living world. It offers a concise, accessible exploration of the animals named in biblical narratives, weaving together natural history, scriptural reference, and humane curiosity. For biblical scholars and sermon prep alike, the book functions as a reliable, elegantly written companion that illuminates how the tapestry of life informs doctrine, morals, and imagination. The tone blends reverent observation with practical description, inviting both casual readers and classic-literature collectors to linger on every creature, from the ape to the coral. A note on literary and historical significance: this nineteenth century zoology classic captures a pivotal moment in religious natural history, when scripture and science spoke in a shared vocabulary. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, it is restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. This is a mosaic of creatures, a thoughtful feast for anyone drawn to animals in scripture, the mosaic of creatures, and the enduring charm of early zoological catalogue.
