Biology – The science of life and living organisms.
Genesis And Leviticus And Proverbs Oh My!
Biology gives you a brain. Life turns it into a mind. (Jeffrey Eugenides)
As I began the process of researching, writing and putting together SURTSBiology, I realized that there were dozens of bible verses that someway…somehow…mentions directly or indirectly, items that qualify under the scientific study of biology.
Are there bible verses relating to biology in Genesis, Leviticus and Proverbs that I may have missed? Maybe. What I did discover while putting this section of SURTSScience – Biology together is the fact that the Holy Bible has plenty to say about the science of biology. In fact, there are so many bible verses relating to the study of biology, SURTSBiology had to be divided up into 10 sections:
Genesis and Leviticus And Proverbs Oh My!
Ants And Bats And Caterpillars Oh My!
Chameleons And Crickets And Doves Oh My!
Eagles And Flies And Hares Oh My!
Hawks And Lambs And Locusts Oh My!
Moles And Owls And Pigs Oh My!
Pigeons And Rats And Seagulls Oh My!
Serpents And Spiders And Vipers Oh My!
Vultures And Wild Goats And Worms Oh My! and,
For this section of SURTSBiology…Genesis And Leviticus And Proverbs Oh My!, I would ask that you consider the following…
For a book that is not intended to be a book on science, let alone biology, it is quite amazing, not only on the amount of science that is in there, but the validity of the references regarding biology, that are in there.
Based on the evidence presented, I would submit to you there is absolutely nowhere in the Bible where the biology topics are unfounded. I would also submit to you that there is nowhere in the Bible where any scientific discovery since the Bible was put together, has yet to be proven false, regarding biology.
What is truly amazing is the fact that many of the facts above were already in the Bible before man and his science…and biology, ‘discovered’ them. In multiple cases, by hundreds or thousands of years.
What other religious book has this record?
The point is this:
While the Holy Bible is of course a religious book first and foremost, clearly, it is much more than that.

While the Holy Bible is of course a religious themed book first and foremost, clearly, it is much more than that.
I would submit to you that in regards to the Holy Bible and the scientific field of biology…
