Like a Garden

In this book, Sara Covin Juengst explores the use of garden as metaphor in the Bible. Various garden metaphors convey images of God's providential care, our responsibility to steward the earth, the discipline of the Christian life, what it means to bear fruit, and the harvest waiting for us in the "new heaven and earth". She also discusses ancient gardening routines to shed light on the significance of the symbolism in biblical passages.
