NOTES ON MY SELECTION CRITERIA The Bible and its Author are my focus, not the art: this is The Bible in Paintings, not "Great Paintings" nor even "Good Paintings." Indeed, occasionally photographs illustrate the text. So, works need not be masterpieces to qualify for inclusion here—they don't need to be housed at the Louvre nor auctioned by Sotheby's. They only need to illustrate successfully some aspect of the Biblical text or, frankly, just tickle my fancy, which I'm always asking the Holy Spirit to guide.
A r t
Q u a l i t yOften, artists misrepresent the Scripture, but unless the error is material, licentious or heretical I usually include the artwork, trusting that the Spirit is perfectly capable of defending Himself. So, with such forgiving filters, it means that you're seeing practically everything I'm finding.
The Protestant Canon does not (for several reasons) follow a strictly chronological sequence. There are many examples where, for God's good purposes, stories are told out-of-order. Nevertheless, for the sake of simplicity, clarity, and my sanity, I have chosen to proceed linearly and methodically from Genesis onward, illustrating each Bible passage as we come to it. Where two passages cover the same incident I omit the second telling, excepting the four Gospels which I will treat synoptically. Now, onward!
T e x t
S e q u e n c i n gThe pace here may seem appallingly snail-like to those eager to see their favorite events illustrated. My commission is to search for art on each Bible passage in sequence: if I find enough, then it becomes the next installment, even if undramatic (but where there is little or no art, that Bible passage goes untold here).
P a c i n g Then, there is the human element: this is not actually a daily series, because I can only research, compose, edit and post five or six of these installments weekly. And because I only get to do this series once, I'm taking my time, chiefly by posting everything; if I find lots of art, I don't cherry-pick some and discard the rest. Rather, I line up all of them and then sort them into manageable bunches, often resulting in multiple days' episodes of the same story. Obviously, I like being thorough. Were you in a big hurry?
The Bible is a thick book, as you know; but we'll get there eventually, Lord willing—this is His project, after all. And always remember:
love, joy, peace, patience kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness & self-control is a fruit of the Spirit!. .
Art is merely the Toy Department of Bible study,
so I'm just having fun here—I hope you are, too!
Thank you for your understanding.Hebrews 11:6

Good Morning, Dan!
Today’s J-Thread is related in a weird way.
Jonah had a real problem with “Negativity”.
All of them
Though to this day I don’t understand how a man could survive 3 days without O2 but, God is God...
Hmmmmm: Mary-Lou, weird, negativity. I shall watch for that.
That’s the Spirit! How do you suppose Mr. Jonah felt about it?!
nully pauses, looks puzzled, scratches head...
Or something like that.

Or something like that.
It’s a miracle.

Like your new tag...LOL

I think Michelangelo, in #19, is painting the symbolic relationship with Jesus - by the marks/holes? on each of Jonas’ feet.
That’s Christ, performing the Last Judgment, with Jonah’s lower legs and nameplate visible at the top. Sorry I didn’t make that clearer.
ahh! Thanks!
I enjoyed your inference, though. Our mutual identification with Jesus is, after all, THE WHOLE POINT! We should be predisposed to noticing it readily.
“Though to this day I don’t understand how a man could survive 3 days without O2 but, God is God...”
Well put. I always assumed when God ‘prepared a fish’ He made a special creation with an air sac that Jonah breathed.
I just figured it took us a couple thousand years to discover the science of scuba...LOL
