What has hermeneutics to do with ecology? What texts, if any, come
to mind when you consider what the scriptures might say about
environmental ethics? To help readers think critically and clearly
about the Bible's relation to modern environmental issues, this
volume expands the horizons of biblical interpretation to introduce
ecological hermeneutics, moving beyond a simple discussion about
Earth and its constituents as topics to a reading of the text from
the perspective of Earth. In these groundbreaking essays, sixteen
scholars seek ways to identify with Earth as they read and retrieve
the role or voice of Earth, a voice previously unnoticed or
suppressed within the biblical text and its interpretation. This
study enriches eco-theology with eco-exegesis, a radical and timely
dialogue between ecology and hermeneutics. The contributors are
Vicky Balabanski, Laurie Braaten, Norman Habel, Theodore Hiebert,
Cameron Howard, Melissa Tubbs Loya, Hilary Marlow, Susan Miller,
Raymond Person, Alice Sinnott, Kristin Swenson, Sigve Tonstad,
Peter Trudinger, Marie Turner, Elaine Wainwright, and Arthur
Walker-Jones. Paperback edition is available from the Society of
Biblical Literature (www.sbl-site.org)
