Mouth of the Donkey

Więcej o książce

Exploring the intersection of ecology, spirituality, and ethics, this book examines the roles of animals in the Hebrew Bible. The author, Laura Duhan-Kaplan, intertwines diverse perspectives, including biology, Kabbalah, and Indigenous wisdom, to reinterpret biblical narratives. She presents Jacob's sheep as family, Balaam's donkey as a guide, and Eve's snake as a misunderstood ally. Through these re-imaginings, the text encourages readers to confront human violence and cultivate a peaceful coexistence with the natural world, fostering a harmonious future for children.
