Great Couples of the Bible

The book of God is also a book of people. Love and lust, devotion and betrayal, sex, sin, jealousy, and grief — the stories of biblical couples disclose a full panorama of human emotions and actions. These stories of love, marriage, sex, and death, historically fascinating and yet also wellsprings of great artistic traditions and religious meaning, are here presented in an informative and engaging format with more than 200 full-color illustrations from classic, chiefly Western art sources.

Some of the couples explored are: Adam and Eve, Jacob and Leah and Rachel, Solomon and the Queen of Sheba, Tobias and Sara, Amnon and Tamar, Judith and Holofernes, Joseph and Potiphar’s wife, Ruth and Boaz, Abraham and Hagar, Moses and Zipporah, Ahab and Isabel, and more.
