The doors to the baptistery, located across the street from the Duomo's main doors, are beautiful, and each one is a story from the Old Testament.  They are:

Adam & Eve are expelled from Eden Cain murders his brother, Abel
The drunkenness of Noah and his sacrifice Abraham and the sacrifice of Isaac
Esau and Jacob Joseph sold into slavery
Moses receives the 10 commandments The fall of Jericho
The battle with the Philistines Solomon and the Queen of Sheba
