There are numerous embellishments, including depictions of the encampment of the Children of Israel, temple vessels, Aaron & Moses, both sides of a shekel coin, a charming scene of Jonas and the whale, and several of Solomon's ships. Visscher's emblem, an old fisherman, is at right. Published in a Dutch Bible, with text on verso.
