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.
