The term is used throughout the Scriptures to illustrate various spiritual truths, laws, and divine provisions. Birds are often mentioned in the context of God's creation, His care for His creatures, and as symbols in prophetic and parabolic teachings. Creation and God's Provision The account of creation in Genesis highlights the origin of fowls. <a href="/genesis/1-20.htm">Genesis 1:20-22</a> states, "And God said, 'Let the waters teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open expanse of the sky.' So God created the great sea creatures and every living thing that moves, with which the waters teemed, according to their kinds, and every bird of flight according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. Then God blessed them and said, 'Be fruitful and multiply and fill the waters of the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth.'" This passage underscores the divine command for birds to fill the skies, reflecting God's creative power and His intention for biodiversity. Birds are part of the intricate balance of nature, serving various ecological roles. Symbolism and Teachings Fowls are used symbolically in several biblical passages. In the parable of the sower, Jesus uses birds to represent the evil one who snatches away the word sown in people's hearts (<a href="/matthew/13-4.htm">Matthew 13:4, 19</a>). This illustrates the spiritual battle over the reception of God's word. In the Old Testament, birds are sometimes used to symbolize nations or peoples. For example, in <a href="/ezekiel/17-3.htm">Ezekiel 17:3</a> , a great eagle is used to represent the king of Babylon. Such imagery conveys messages of power, swiftness, and sometimes impending judgment. Dietary Laws and Sacrifices The Mosaic Law includes specific instructions regarding clean and unclean birds. <a href="/leviticus/11-13.htm">Leviticus 11:13-19</a> lists birds that are considered detestable and not to be eaten, such as the eagle, vulture, and raven. These dietary laws were part of the broader covenantal stipulations given to Israel, distinguishing them from other nations and teaching principles of holiness and obedience. Birds also played a role in sacrificial practices. In <a href="/leviticus/1-14.htm">Leviticus 1:14-17</a> , the offering of turtledoves or young pigeons is described as an acceptable sacrifice for those who could not afford larger animals. This provision highlights God's accommodation for all worshippers, regardless of their economic status. God's Care and Sovereignty The Bible frequently uses birds to illustrate God's care and sovereignty over creation. In <a href="/matthew/6-26.htm">Matthew 6:26</a> , Jesus teaches, "Look at the birds of the air: They do not sow or reap or gather into barns—and yet your Heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?" This passage reassures believers of God's provision and care, encouraging trust in His faithfulness. Similarly, in <a href="/job/38-41.htm">Job 38:41</a> , God challenges Job with the question, "Who provides food for the raven when its young cry out to God and wander about for lack of food?" This rhetorical question emphasizes God's attentive care for all creatures, reinforcing His omnipotence and benevolence. Prophetic and Eschatological References In prophetic literature, birds are sometimes associated with desolation and judgment. <a href="/isaiah/34-11.htm">Isaiah 34:11</a> describes a scene of desolation where "the desert owl and screech owl will possess it; the great owl and the raven will dwell in it." Such imagery conveys the totality of divine judgment and the resulting abandonment of once-thriving places. In the eschatological context, <a href="/revelation/19-17.htm">Revelation 19:17-18</a> depicts an angel calling birds to gather for the "great supper of God," where they will feast on the flesh of kings and mighty men. This vivid imagery underscores the finality of God's judgment against the wicked. Throughout the Bible, fowls serve as a multifaceted symbol, reflecting God's creative power, His care for creation, and His sovereign rule over the affairs of the world.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>(n.)
