THE SAINT JOHN’S BIBLE

Commissioned by Saint John’s Abbey and University, The Saint John’s Bible was created by Donald Jackson, former Senior Scribe to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth’s Crown Office, along with a collaborative team of scribes, artists, and theologians. It is the first handwritten, illuminated Bible to be commissioned by a Benedictine monastery in more than 500 years.

All 73 books from the New Revised Standard Version are presented in seven volumes of approximately 1,120 pages including 160 original illuminations.  The original manuscript is now curated and on display in The Saint John’s Bible Gallery at Saint John’s University in Collegeville, MN.

THE HERITAGE PROGRAM

The Heritage Edition of The Saint John’s Bible is the only full-size, illuminated, fine art edition of the original manuscript that will ever be produced. Bound in Italian leather, it features the exquisite calligraphy, vibrant imagery, and stunning gold and silver illuminations recreating the original.

In all, only 299 seven-volume sets have been created. Each has received special hand-finishing making each set unique—numbered and authenticated by Donald Jackson, Artistic Director. To date over 160 of the Heritage Editions have been acquired by families, churches, schools, libraries, universities, healthcare centers, and retreat centers.

The Heritage Program is an international initiative for individuals and institutions to explore the artistic and spiritual beauty of The Saint John’s Bible. We invite you to learn how these beautiful works of art can be enjoyed in your community now and for generations to come. Please visit us at www.saintjohnsbible.org.
