Recent studies of the biblical story of creation try to uncover its
roots in ancient Near Eastern myths or its compatibility with
modern science and ecology. In contrast, this work by William Brown
investigates how the various pictures of creation found in
Scripture helped shape the ancient faith community's moral
character. Bridging the fields of biblical studies and ethics, this
interdisciplinary work demonstrates how certain creation traditions
of the Old and New Testaments were developed from the community's
moral imagination for the purpose of forming and preserving both
Israel's and the early church's identity in the world. Bringing to
light insights largely overlooked by modern treatments of biblical
ethics and creation, The Ethos of the Cosmos ends by recommending
the formative power of creation for the contemporary church.
