Just noting that Barry Moser's illustrated bible (1999) is the Christian
Bible (i.e., the Old and New Testaments).  Moser is a methodist preacher
and printmaker (wood engraving and woodcuts).

Chagall's illustrated bible (1956) -- obviously produced after Dore's
and before Moser's -- is the Hebrew Bible (called by some the "Old" or
"Original" Testament).
