| Summary | "Story of the Bible Animals" by J. G. Wood is a descriptive work that seems to have been written in the late 19th century. The volume explores the various creatures mentioned in the Bible, delving into their characteristics, habitats, and the roles they play within the scripture narratives. The book aims to illuminate scripture passages through a better understanding of the animals referenced, making it educational yet accessible to readers of all ages. At the start of the narrative, the author emphasizes the importance of understanding the natural history of animals to interpret biblical texts accurately. He outlines the structure of the book, highlighting that it will cover creatures from both the Old and New Testaments, alongside explanations of relevant scripture passages. The opening portion also introduces the lion, illustrating its presence in the scriptures and noting its historical significance in the region, while discussing its disappearance due to human activities. Wood's style is engaging, aiming to captivate a general audience through vivid descriptions and informative anecdotes about each animal's behavior and symbolism within biblical context.
