Answer: Nuremberg Chronicle

Explanation: the Nuremberg Chronicle is a history of the world from the 15th-century European Christian perspective written by the German physician and humanist Hartmann Schedel (1440-1514) and illustrated by painters Michael Wolgemut and Wilhelm Pleydenwurff. The Nuremberg Chronicle is basically a Biblical paraphrase a literary work that does not abridge or translate the Bible but retells it in accordance with a particular historical or cultural setting. It merges the Christian metanarrative with the contemporary world so that the latter is projected through the lens of the prevalent theological doctrine and spiritual practice.
