Noah's altar after the Flood, the building of Babel and the life of Abram are told scene by scene in these prints by Moet, the draughtsman credited in Thomas Stackhouse's A New History of the Holy Bible. The plates were issued in London for John Hinton in 1752, with engraving credited to Gucht. Abram's departure for Canaan, the rescue of a captive kinsman, the meeting with Melchizedek and Abram's deep sleep complete a focused Old Testament sequence in which figures and actions carry the story.
