Phil Bray is an Australian author, butcher, and independent biblical researcher whose work focuses on the book of Leviticus, sacrifice, and atonement in the Old Testament. Drawing on his professional experience as a butcher, he brings a unique hands-on perspective to biblical texts that are often approached only through academic study. Bray is the author of Leviticus on the Butcher's Block: Making Head or Tail of the Bible's Toughest Book, which seeks to make Leviticus accessible, practical, and engaging for modern readers by exploring its sacrificial system through the eyes of someone who has worked directly with animals and meat preparation. Based in Sydney, Australia, he enjoys writing, cycling, coffee, and helping readers discover the richness of one of the Bible’s most misunderstood books.
