Etching with hand-coloring in watercolor on Arches wove paper. Initialed 'M. Ch' in pencil, numbered 7/100. From the edition of 100. Published in 1956 by Teriade, Paris. "La Bible" is one of Chagall's most important works. The work was originally commissioned by Ambroise Vollard in 1930. The artist spent the next 8 years from 1931 to 1939 etching the plates. Printing of the plates took place after the war, at first in Maurice Potin's studio and later at Raymond Haasen's. The copper plates were then destroyed

The images of this work and the further 3 works from this series on offer have been viewed by the Chagall comité and have been approved verbally in November 2023. It's not known how many of the works from this series have been actually coloured by Marc Chagall, as there are also works that staid in black and white.

The Staff of Moses, also known as the Staff of God is a staff mentioned in the Bible and Quran as a walking stick used by Moses. According to the Book of Exodus, the staff (Hebrew: מַטֶּה matteh, translated "rod" in the King James Bible) was used to produce water from a rock, was transformed into a snake and back, and was used at the parting of the Red Sea.[1] Whether the staff of Moses was the same as the staff used by his brother Aaron has been debated by rabbinical scholars.
