**Wait … *that's* in the Bible?**  
Chances are there are stories in the Bible you've never heard or have forgotten. Or maybe you're like many people-completely missing it when someone makes a cultural or literary reference to a common Bible story. Either way, this visually rich collection of true tales curated especially *for adults* will surprise, entertain, and inform, as you journey through some of the most important stories in the Old Testament.  
  
This combination of 50 classic favorites and poignant lesser-known stories holds relevance for devout believers and skeptics alike. Inside these pages, you'll uncover … * Easy-to-read stories featuring Bible text from reliable modern translations-*not* a paraphrase or retelling-along with brief introductions providing historical background and context.
* Practical truths applicable to the busy, messy, and sometimes turbulent lives of adults.
* Quotes, tidbits, and asides related to the Bible, geography, literature, and pop culture.
* More than 75 vibrant, classic fine art illustrations for each story. The action-oriented-and at times, campy-vintage Bible art illuminates the biblical text, bringing the events to life.
