The images used here come from a set of Biblical story pictures that were the most commonly used illustrations for LDS Sunday Schools from at least the 1940s through the 1960s. They are not original to us; rather, they come from some Biblical art supply company. I have not yet been able to identify that company, although I find these images in Biblical art collections all over the Internet.

Since these are the pictures that appear so often in LDS manuals and mounted on cardboard in meetinghouse libraries, they likely contributed strongly to the mental image of these scriptural stories in the minds of two or three generations of Latter-day Saint children.

How many stories can YOU identify from these pictures?

Some are very easy; others are extremely difficult, in my subjective evaluation (how many stories might be illustrated by a man in robes standing in the desert?). Identify up to six images — if you can amass at least ten points in those six answers, then you win a Genuine Certified Guaranteed Get-Out of Gospel Doctrine Class Free Card, good for one Sunday School session spent in the hallway instead of in class — backed, of course, with all the authority vested in me to grant such dispensation. If you want to run for Keepa Champion by racking up the highest score of all, identify six pictures on-blog, then send your other identifications to keepapitchinin [at] aol [dot] com.

Ready? Up to six identifications — leave the rest for others, please.
