Adam and Eve

This is a retelling of the Bible story of Adam and Eve, exploring why the story is important and offering contextual information to make it come alive. It starts at the very beginning, with the creation of the world, all the plants, animals, and finally humans. It traces the first roots of Christianity and Judaism, looking at the first patriarchs and their successive covenants with God. The text is illustrated with artwork, specially commissioned from Italian artists, and there are maps to indicate where the events took place. Special context feature panels provide information on the story. This volume is part of a series of eight titles covering both the Old and New Testaments.
