...this volume is a very useful resource for anyone interested in ecological readings of the text. This volume also demonstrates various ways to bring modern sociopolitical issues, beyond ecology alone, into conversation with the biblical text and therefore serves to help generate further research., "...this volume is a very useful resource for anyone interested in ecological readings of the text. This volume also demonstrates various ways to bring modern sociopolitical issues, beyond ecology alone, into conversation with the biblical text and therefore serves to help generate further research." - Bulletin of Biblical Research, The series as a whole is a significant development with some distinguished contributors presenting now and others lined up for the future., This ground-breaking collection of essays takes ecological hermeneutics, particularly Earth Bible readings, in a new direction. These essays explore ecological aspects of war in dialogue with various biblical and other texts and contexts. They make eco-justice and eco-poetic connections between sacred texts in the Jewish and Christian traditions and pressing cultural issues of today - war, ecological destruction, refugees and other interdependency and relationaility with human and 'more-than-human' species. In doing so it contributes to the endeavour to move away from readings that are andro- and anthropocentric, towards reading in solidarity with the Earth community. Because Scripture shapes minds and imaginations to perceive the world in ways that diverge from discourses of national self-interest and pragmatism, such a volume as this is vitally important. It features essays from some of the most prominent Earth Bible scholars writing in Australia today. It also includes an essay by Professor David Horrell, leader of the University of Exeter's Uses of the Bible in Environmental Ethics Project, which offers reflections on the approaches and the implications of these essays. The collection is timely, as the need for resisting the co-option of sacred texts and traditions in the interests of war is now more pressing than ever. this collection will be of interest to readers engaging in the field of cultural, postcolonial and feminist studies, and contemporary eco-justice and eco-poetic readings of sacred texts in the Jewish and Christian cultures., "...this volume is a very useful resource for anyone interested in ecological readings of the text. This volume also demonstrates various ways to bring modern sociopolitical issues, beyond ecology alone, into conversation with the biblical text and therefore serves to help generate further research." - Alison K. Hawanchak

Synopsis
In this book Australian biblical scholars engage with texts from Genesis to Revelation. With experience in the Earth Bible Project and the Ecological Hermeneutics section of the Society of Biblical Literature, contributors address impacts of war in more-than-human contexts and habitats, in conversation with selected biblical texts. Aspects of contemporary conflicts and the questions they pose for biblical studies are explored through cultural motifs such as the Rainbow Serpent of Australian Indigenous spiritualities, security and technological control, the loss of home, and ongoing colonial violence toward Indigenous people. Alongside these approaches, contributors ask: how do trees participate in war? Wow do we deal with the enemy? What after-texts of the biblical text speak into and from our contemporary world? David Horrell, University of Exeter, UK, responds to the collection, addressing the concept of herem in the Hebrew Bible, and drawing attention to the Pauline corpus. The volume asks: can creative readings of biblical texts contribute to the critical task of living together peaceably and sustainably?

The seller also messaged me as soon as the purchase went through so communication was great.

The seller met two out of three categories I look for when judging my purchasing experience: how well it was packaged, how quickly it was shipped, and how properly it was described; this seller provided prompt shipping and an accurate description, but failed when it came to packaging. The item arrived in a plastic bag without any reinforcement or protection whatsoever and suffered dinged corners on multiple fronts.
