The Animals' Bible

edit

The Animals’ Bible is a book by Canadian author, film producer and former Humane Society president Ian A. Stuart. Published in July of 2010 by Thirteenth Level Media, the book has a Foreword by the Reverend Professor Andrew Linzey of Oxford University, the world’s leading authority on Animals and Religion, and has an extensive Subject Index. It examines the Bible from the point of view of other species from Genesis to Revelation including those additional books found in Roman Catholic and Orthodox Bibles that are known to Protestants as the Apocrypha. It also draws on relevant Old and New Testament extra-Biblical writings and the Jewish Mishnah as reference. This book identifies virtually every Biblical statement about animals and has hundreds of chapter and verse quotations. It answers crucial questions such as whether animals have souls, if they are aware of God’s existence, if He communicates with them and they with him; if we have moral and ethical obligations to animals and so on. For Christian readers it indicates the way in which the many sacrifices of the Old Testament relate to the one sacrifice of the New and how Jesus of Nazareth became The Lamb of God. The book concludes with an actual “Animals’ Bible” and is unique in that no other book of its kind exists.
