The Berean Standard Bible provides numerous references to animals, highlighting their significance in God's creation and His interactions with humanity.<br><br><b>Creation and Purpose</b><br><br>Animals were created by God on the fifth and sixth days of creation, as recorded in Genesis. They are part of the ordered universe that God declared "very good" (<a href="/genesis/1-31.htm">Genesis 1:31</a>). <a href="/genesis/1-24.htm">Genesis 1:24-25</a> states, "And God said, 'Let the earth bring forth living creatures according to their kinds: livestock, creatures that move along the ground, and wild animals, each according to its kind.' And it was so." This passage underscores the diversity and intentionality in God's creation of animals.<br><br><b>Dominion and Stewardship</b><br><br>Humans are given dominion over animals, a responsibility that implies stewardship and care. <a href="/genesis/1-28.htm">Genesis 1:28</a> commands, "God blessed them and said to them, 'Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it; rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and every creature that moves on the ground.'" This dominion is not a license for exploitation but a call to manage God's creation wisely and compassionately.<br><br><b>Sacrificial System</b><br><br>Animals play a crucial role in the sacrificial system of the Old Testament, symbolizing atonement and reconciliation with God. Leviticus outlines various offerings, including burnt offerings, sin offerings, and peace offerings, often involving animals such as lambs, goats, and bulls. <a href="/leviticus/1-3.htm">Leviticus 1:3-4</a> instructs, "If one's offering is a burnt offering from the herd, he is to offer an unblemished male. He must present it at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, so that he may be accepted by the LORD."<br><br><b>Symbolism and Metaphor</b><br><br>Animals are frequently used symbolically in Scripture. The lion represents strength and majesty, as seen in <a href="/proverbs/30-30.htm">Proverbs 30:30</a> : "a lion, mighty among beasts, retreating before nothing." The lamb is a symbol of innocence and sacrifice, epitomized in Jesus Christ, the "Lamb of God" (<a href="/john/1-29.htm">John 1:29</a>). Serpents often symbolize deceit and evil, as in the account of the Fall in <a href="/bsb/genesis/3.htm">Genesis 3</a>.<br><br><b>Eschatological Imagery</b><br><br>In prophetic and eschatological literature, animals often appear in visions and dreams, conveying divine messages. The Book of Daniel and Revelation are replete with such imagery. For instance, <a href="/revelation/5-5.htm">Revelation 5:5-6</a> describes, "Then one of the elders said to me, 'Do not weep! Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed to open the scroll and its seven seals.' Then I saw a Lamb who appeared to have been slain, standing in the center of the throne."<br><br><b>Moral and Ethical Teachings</b><br><br>The Bible also addresses the ethical treatment of animals. <a href="/proverbs/12-10.htm">Proverbs 12:10</a> states, "A righteous man regards the life of his animal, but the tender mercies of the wicked are only cruelty." This verse highlights the moral obligation to treat animals with kindness and respect.<br><br><b>Conclusion</b><br><br>Animals in the Bible are more than mere creatures; they are part of God's creation, serving as symbols, sacrifices, and subjects of human stewardship. They reflect the Creator's wisdom and the intricate design of His world, reminding humanity of their role as caretakers of the earth.<a name="eas" id="eas"></a><div class="vheading2">Easton's Bible Dictionary</div>An organized living creature endowed with sensation. The Levitical law divided animals into clean and unclean, although the distinction seems to have existed before the Flood (<a href="/genesis/7-2.htm">Genesis 7:2</a>). The clean could be offered in sacrifice and eaten. All animals that had not cloven hoofs and did not chew the cud were unclean. The list of clean and unclean quadrupeds is set forth in the Levitical law (<a href="/deuteronomy/14-3.htm">Deuteronomy 14:3</a>-20; <a href="/context/leviticus/11.htm">Leviticus 11</a>). <a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.

(<I>n.</I>) One of the lower animals; a brute or beast, as distinguished from man; as, men and animals.<p>3. (<I>a.</I>) of or relating to animals; as, animal functions.<p>4.
