Where are animals mentioned in the Bible? You might be surprised…
- Job 38-41 speaks of God as over creation, as the Creator. Chapter 39 specifically discusses animals. My favorite part is about the ostrich… Job 40:15-24 is about the behemoth (possibly a hippo or elephant) and Job 41 is about the leviaton.
- Proverbs 30:18-19, 24-31 Observations about animals
- Psalm 104 – how the Lord takes care of animals
- Leviticus 11 specifies clean and unclean animals.
- Genesis 6:18-7:4 Noah to bring 2 of every kind of animal, 7 pairs of clean animals.
- This list is not meant to be exhaustive, but provides some observations about animals.
To supplement any animal study, I recommend these drawing resources.
