Walker-Jones and Suzanna R. Millar, offer insights into how biblical texts can be re-examined from an animal studies perspective, promoting the flourishing of all creatures. The work is aimed at scholars and students of religious and cultural studies, particularly those interested in biblical exegesis and animal rights. Generated by AI.
