<h1>Climate and Environment<a class="headerlink" href="#climate-and-environment" title="Permalink to this heading"></a></h1>
|
||
<p>This chapter contians the scripture text I can find that talk about the climate and/or environment.
|
||
There is no real structure to it but mainly some notes about this topic.</p>
|
||
<p>What I find important to note is that this topic is very small in the Bible. I do not think you could fill 10 pages with it, maybe not even 1.
|
||
However, the judgment of the rich and the unfairness that is in society is a very much recurring subject.
|
||
With that perspective, I do not think the goal should be to improve the environment but to be fair and strive to live an honest and fair life.
|
||
Richess are not a biblical thing, but God does bless the righteous(TODO add note(psalms, Jesaja, Jeremia, Job, Salomon, )).</p>

<h2>Climate<a class="headerlink" href="#climate" title="Permalink to this heading"></a></h2>
|
||
<p>The climate and climate change, as the political theme that is used today(2024), does not exist in the Bible. The only references to something like climate is by the time of Noah after the great flood:</p>

For three years you are to consider it forbidden; it must not be eaten.

24 In the fourth year all its fruit will be holy, an offering of praise to the Lord.

25 But in the fifth year you may eat its fruit. In this way your harvest will be increased.
