R. Crumb's Illustrated Genesis is a great way to start. https://www.amazon.com/Book-Genesis-Illustrated-R-Crumb/dp/0393061027/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1517543766&sr=8-1&keywords=crumb+genesis https://www.amazon.com/Book-Genesis-Illustrated-R-Crumb/dp/0.... It's much easier to understand some of the customs with drawings. Only a small part of Genesis is supernatural, the rest is an epic human story.
For the rest of the bible, pick one with modern language. Although the antiquated language of the King James Version feels more serious, it's easy to misunderstand.
