Criticisms of Farrell Till
Farrell Till stated the Bible was incorrect in regards to the scriptures declaring that hares and hyraxes chewing the cud. In doing so Mr. Till stated that Wayne Jackson misquoted Grzimek's Animal Life Encyclopedia in regards to declaring it a ruminant which was correct. What Mr. Till ommitted to state however was that particular issue of Grzimek's Animal Life Encyclopedia said that hyraxes ruminate which directly comments on the very issue being discussed. Plus Mr. Till does not mention all the various exegetical issues and scientific issues that are involved in regards to the issues involving Leviticus 11: 5-6 according the various scientists and Jewish/Christian exegetical scholars. (For further details please see: Wycliffe Bible Encyclopedia, 1986, Animals of the Bible, Beasts of the field: hare, page 80, Moody Press, Chicago, IL). JP Holding who comments on much of Mr. Till's work points out other matters which Mr. Till fails to mention in regards to his articles on the Bible in regards to animal behavior which has later been affirmed by scientists.
