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.
