Definition: Taxonomy in Bible refers to classification or organization of life, creatures, etc., into categories such as kingdom, family, order, class, genus, species. It's also used for describing things like plants, animals, minerals, etc. Detailed definitions include: - Kingdom: A group of related living organisms that are closely related through their common ancestry. - Family: An organism group consisting of closely related members sharing a common ancestor. - Order: A group of closely related organisms that are genetically related to each other in terms of their common ancestors but do not share any specific traits. - Class: A class is a division within an order or family, including sub-families and genera. - Genus: The scientific name for a living organism. It typically includes the species name and one or more genus-specific names. - Species: A distinct group of organisms that can be distinguished from other members by their specific traits and characteristics. Understanding these terms in the context of life helps us understand how diverse and complex life is in the Bible's world.

taxonomy

Definition: Taxonomy is a method by which organisms are classified or ordered into families, genera, orders, phyla, classes, and higher-level taxa to facilitate better understanding and categorization in various disciplines such as biology, geology, medicine, botany, linguistics, etc. A taxonomic system consists of a hierarchical classification system based on the characteristics of an organism. It distinguishes between organisms of a particular family or order, which is more specific than one without that name; a genus, more general than one with that name; and a class, less specific than one but broader than one. A higher-level taxonomic rank assigns specific criteria to distinguish different taxa. In taxonomy, the "taxon" refers to an organism and its classification into a group of organisms based on their characteristics. The taxon may be any combination of genus, species, subfamily, family, order, class, etc., which is also referred to as the "classifying scheme."
