Historical BooksDonald Jackson, Artistic Director and Illuminator

Historical Books is the sixth of seven full-color reproduction books from The Saint John’s Bible. Of all the different genres comprising the bible, per-haps no other collection has caused as much discomfort within the reader as the historical books. The wars and bloodshed their stories contain have inspired pious and holy people to the greatest extremes of behavior, all in the name of following God’s will. While Joshua, Judges, Samuel, Kings, Judith, and Esther contain many off-putting stories, they also have their share of inspirational passages; more-over, works such as Ruth and Tobit are both edifying and endearing. As the largest book in the series, Historical Books features more than twenty-fi ve stunning illuminations as well as multiple text treatments and marginal details that dramatically depict the bible’s inspiring and thought-provoking passages. Through beautiful handwritten script and elegant design, this volume illustrates how the grace of God’s justice and peace can rise from the most unlikely of places, reminding us that our redemption is always close at hand.80A 978-0-8146-9053-6 Hardcover with dust jacket, 276 pp., 9 3⁄4 x 15, $79.95 Now Available

This opening illumination to the book of Genesis sets out each step in the creation of the world. Gold is used throughout to symbolize God’s intervention in the chaos and his ordering of the universe and its elements.

Genealogy of Jesus

Baptism of Jesus

Opening of Gospel of Matthew Matthew 1:1-17


Representing the genealogy of Jesus as told in the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus’ family tree is depicted as a Jewish menorah, intertwined with spirals suggestive of DnA strands. The names of the men and women in the family tree are written in both Hebrew and English. Donald Jackson has incorporated designs common to several religions, some of which are inspired by illuminations from the Qur’an.

Opening of Gospel of Mark Mark 1:1-29


After baptizing Jesus, John the baptizer observes Christ standing in the river, cast in gold, which is refl ected on the top of the water. Angels wait to take Jesus away and crowds surround him; yet there is a hint of darkness in the spiders. This is the only place in the new Testament pages of The Saint John’s Bible that includes the patron of Saint John’s Abbey.

Opening of Gospel of John John 1:1-30


The Living Word steps from the darkness, which recalls the chaos and nothingness of the Creation story, and moves toward light and order. The texture behind the head of Christ is inspired from an image taken from the Hubble Space Telescope and lends a breathtaking cosmic character to the whole action taking place. To the left, an intriguing keyhole recalls the tradition of locked manuscripts, holding the “key” to the Word of God.

Opening of Gospel of LukeLuke 1:1-45


All eyes are drawn to the crib in this illumination of the birth of Christ from the Gospel of Luke. The presence of the child is central, yet we do not see the baby. The faces of the Virgin Mary, Joseph, and the gathered shepherds glow with light from the crib. A favorite print for celebrating the seasons of Advent and Christmas.

BeatitudesMatthew 5 – 7

Artist: Thomas Ingmire

Special calligraphic treatments in The Saint John’s Bible are designed to celebrate the text and are perfect for well-known passages such as the Sermon on the Mount. Artist Thomas ingmire gives special attention to the beatitudes here, writing them with a style and movement that allows the words to become the art itself. The right side is a repetitive treatment of the word “blessed” that joins with the gold lettering to express Jesus’ rich teaching.

The Lord Bless YouNumbers 6:23


This familiar passage is a blessing dear to many and used at the conclusion of evening prayer for benedictines at Saint John’s Abbey. Here it receives a special treatment, bringing it to a visual expression with pastel colors and lovely calligraphy.

“The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face to shine upon you, and be gracious to you; the LORD lift up his countenance upon you, and give you peace.”

Hymn to a Virtuous WomanProverbs 31:1-31

Artist: Hazel Dolby

Hazel Dolby’s treatment of this passage takes the form of a tapestry. it is a tribute to traditional women’s crafts, embroidery and quilting, gardening and ceramics. it also draws on the nature of proverbs themselves, often used to adorn samplers hung in kitchens and over doorways. A sampler is a daily reminder of the wisdom that resides in the verse. The tassels on this image are reminiscent of the tassels on Jewish prayer shawls, also meant to remind the wearer to pray.

Like Clay in the Hand of the PotterSirach 33:13


God has molded us and assigned us each our particular talents and quirks. Like a hand-fashioned piece of clay, each unique piece refl ects its maker. For this reason we are all special, and we are continually molded as we seek wisdom and grow. The dynamic shape of the text and the subtle shifts of color speak to God’s playfulness, making us “as he pleases,” in all our diversity. The text itself conforms to the shape of a hand cupping rotating clay. Finally, as a potter puts a mark on a fi nished work, so this text treatment ends as if God had pressed a thumb to the page, represented here by Donald Jackson’s own thumbprint.

Faithful FriendsWisdom 6:17-20

Artist: Diane M. von Arx

Like so many texts in Wisdom Books, this one is rich with metaphors: friends are a treasure and a saving medicine; wisdom is a good seed planted by those who toil in her garden; these laborers will harvest her fruits; for the undisciplined, however, wisdom is a heavy stone to be cast aside. This colorful print keeps the truth of good values ever before us, instructing us to cultivate wisdom and be disciplined. The result will be lasting friendships and peace in our relationships well into old age.

Opening of PsalmsArtist: Donald JacksonScribe: Brian Simpson

For centuries, the book of Psalms or “praises” has been a source of prayer, devotion, and inspiration. Part of the popularity of the Psalms is that they incorporate the entire breadth of human emotion and experience—joy, fear, anger, and love. illuminations from this volume hint at how we might “see” psalms if they were sung or read poetically.
