Prophets The Saint John's Bible

The first volume in a seven-volume series of full-color, page-by-page reproduction from The Saint John's Bible, Gospels and Acts has more than 25 illuminations, including full-page opening illuminations for each of the four gospels. Some of the prominent illuminations include the Genealogy of Jesus, the Birth of Christ, the Raising of Lazarus, the Crucifixion, Christ Our Light, the Last Supper, the Road to Emmaus, and the Pentecost. The Word of God, hand-illuminated through ancient methods by a contemporary master, bring the reader to an experience of epiphany equal to stepping into a scared moment and space. Those who allow themselves to savor the experience unfolding before them will come to see how Gospels and Acts marries text and image beautifully.Jackson, Donald is the author of 'Prophets The Saint John's Bible', published 2005 under ISBN 9780814690512 and ISBN 0814690513.
