"Biblische Szene (bethlehemitischer Kindermord?)" is a painting by Flemish Renaissance artist Gillis van Valckenborch, believed to depict the biblical Massacre of the Innocents, an event described in the Gospel of Matthew (Matthew 2:16–18). The title translates to "Biblical Scene (Massacre of the Innocents?)" in English, indicating some uncertainty about the exact subject matter. Van Valckenborch, born in Leuven around 1570 and died in Frankfurt am Main in 1622, was known for his landscape and history paintings.

The work is characteristic of the Mannerist style, which was prevalent in the late Renaissance, and it reflects the period's complex compositions, vivid colors, and dramatic themes. The painting likely dates from the late 16th or early 17th century, a time when religious subjects were common in European art. Van Valckenborch's depiction of this tragic event would have been intended to evoke an emotional response from the viewer, aligning with the Counter-Reformation's emphasis on engaging the faithful through powerful visual narratives.
