Scripture Illuminated: A Coloring Book for Prayer and Meditation
By Emmanuelle Remond-Dalyac
An illuminated manuscript is a text supplemented with decorations-such as initials, borders, and miniature illustrations. They naturally lend themselves to religious texts, and in Scripture Illuminated you have the opportunity to try your hand at coloring some illuminated texts that depict and supplement stories from the Bible and Scripture verses.
In addition to the coloring pages, you'll find an introduction to manuscript illumination, as well as an explanation of the practice of lectio divina, a traditional practice of scriptural reading, meditation, and prayer intended to promote communion with God and to increase the knowledge of God's Word. As you color, the power of the words-combined with the act of focusing on them-will allow you to reflect, pray, and feel at one with God.

Beautiful book, Not suitable for markers
Posted by Kim on 7th May 2021
This an absolutely beautiful book of coloring and illuminating Scripture verses. I particularly loved the description in the beginning of the different styles of illumination. However, the pages are printed back to back and are not suitable for marker coloring. The marker bleeds through. For this reason I can't give it 5 stars. High end colored pencils will look nice but not give the richness of markers that these illuminations deserve. Would love to see this printed on single pages instead of back to back.
