商品簡介
"Sally Roth is one of the most talented nature writers I’ve ever had the pleasure of reading. Everything she writes is an absolute delight, and this book is no different. Get ready to be entertained while gaining a whole new knowledge and appreciation of birds. " —Stacy Tornio, Editor, Birds & Blooms magazine
Why?
“Why?” is my favorite question. It’s one I ask myself again and again, every time I poke around outside looking at plants and birds and bugs and everything else under the sun.
And wondering “Why?” is how this book came into being.
Why might a dove bring an olive leaf back to the Ark?
Why did a rain of quail fall upon the sleeping, starving Israelites?
Why would ravens carry food to Elijah?
Not in a religious sense—that’s not my department. But in a bird sense.
Might it be possible, I wondered, that every mention of a bird in the Bible is based on science? On the true nature of that bird?
And might the true nature of each bird have something to teach us about the Bible? A better understanding of the verses, once we know the habits and behavior of those birds?
Every line of Scripture that mentions a bird has a “Why?” in it.
As you meet the birds that are named in the Bible, and get to know their North American counterparts, you’ll find the answer to that question. The normal behavior of birds in their natural surroundings is one of the keys to understanding these Scriptures—and these Scriptures are one of the keys to understanding birds.
But at its heart, this is a bird book. Because, at my heart, is a love of birds. And a love of looking for the answers.
—Sally Roth
"Sally’s done it again. Her latest bird book is a treat! Perfect for bird watchers or anyone interested in the Biblical lands; you will be amazed at what you didn’t know. Well researched, of course, but I most appreciated how she interspersed the science and history with interesting tidbits, light-hearted humor, firsthand observations, and illustrations. It will be a great gift for friends and family." —LaVonne Ewing, publisher, PixyJack Press, and birdwatcher
