Summary

Earth Story in Genesis takes up the cause of justice for the earth to discover whether the earth and the earth community are oppressed, silenced, or liberated in biblical text through a series of articles by scholars inspired by a reading of the story of earth in Genesis. The Earth may be valued or devalued, given a voice or denied a voice, dominated or served, depending on the orientation of the text. The ecojustice principles introduced in Volume 1, Readings from the Perspective of Earth, are further supported and enhanced. The Earth Story in Genesis invites you to read as a critical scholar and with an empathetic eye.
