Thirteen paintings tell the story of Moses' life, from his discovery as a foundling on the Nile, to his death on Mt. Pisgah over-looking the land of Canaan. Also depicted are the killing of the Egyptian overseer; the flight to Midian and the burning bush; Moses confronting the Pharaoh; the Plagues; the Exodus and the parting of the Red Sea; the manna from heaven; Moses on Mt. Sinai receiving the Ten Commandments; and the golden calf.

The book also is enriched by a detailed commentary on each painting. The story that inspired the work is re-told, and symbols and important characters are explained.

All in all, a stunning visual introduction to the great themes of the Old Testament as presented in works of art.
