Illustrated Family Bible

Understanding the Greatest Story Ever Told

Illustrated by Peter Dennis
Updated and revised with new typography and refreshed illustrations, DK's Illustrated Family Bible takes a new visual approach to understanding the Bible that will inspire the whole family.

Using original text from the New International Version, this richly illustrated and accessible Bible offers interpretation of the most important stories of the Old and New Testaments - from Abraham and the chosen people to the birth of Jesus and the Revelation. Superb artworks convey the drama of the Bible texts, bringing characters and places to life, while comprehensive background information, including maps and photographs, set the stories in historical, social, and geographical context. Highlighted panels explain key words, phrases, and concepts within the text, with clear chapter and verse references encouraging young readers and families to think and learn, making for a wonderful and meaningful introduction to the greatest story ever told.
Claude-Bernard Costecalde has a master’s degree in theology as well as a diploma in advanced studies in anthropology, philosophy, and Semitic languages, and a doctorate in the science of religions—both from the Sorbonne, Paris. As a publisher in his own right, Dr. Costecalde is committed to producing books about the Bible for both Christian and nonreligious readers.  View titles by Claude-Bernard Costecalde
