Summary: Environmental issues are an ever-increasing focus of public discourse and have provoked concern among religious groups as well as in society more widely. Among biblical scholars criticism of the Judaeo-Christian tradition for its part in the worsening crisis has led to a small but growing field of study on ecology and the Bible. This volume in the Oxford Handbook series makes a significant contribution to this burgeoning interest in ecological hermeneutics, incorporating the best of international scholarship on ecology and the Bible. The Handbook comprises 30 individual essays, from established scholars as well as up-and-coming ones, on a wide range of relevant topics.
