The story of the birth of Christ, celebrated around the world at Christmas, is one of the most beautiful in the New Testament. From Mary’s meeting with the angel Gabriel, to the birth of baby Jesus in a stable, to the visit of shepherds and three wise men, the story is rich in imagery and symbolism.

Here, in a triumph of glorious art, is that wondrous story excerpted from the Gospels of Matthew and Luke from the King James Bible. Gennady Spirin’s luminous illustrations, along with the biblical text, are now available in a beautiful cloth-bound gift edition.
