Bethlehem
Text from the RSV
Bible
Fiona
French
Inspired by England's glorious
stained-glass cathedral windows, artist Fiona French has created a stunning
celebration of the birth of Jesus.
In the magnificent words of the
Revised Standard Version of the New Testament, the story of the first Christmas
unfolds. Beginning on the road to Bethlehem, through the Holy Family's flight by
night to Egypt, breathtaking panoramas in a kaleidoscope of colors illuminate
the story's miraculous events and timeless beauty of the Savior's birth. This
book is a glorious sequel to her original, Easter.
