-Geneva Bible 1615*

B, 1615. Geneva Bible text, translated from original Hebrew and Greek Notes The Geneva Bible holds a significant place in the history of English translations of the Bible. Published in 1560, it was one of the earliest English translations to be mass-produced and widely distributed. What set the Geneva Bible apart was its extensive study aids, including annotations, cross-references, and explanatory notes, which were provided to aid readers in understanding the text. This version was also notable for its influence on English literature and its role in shaping the religious and political landscape of the time, particularly in England during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. Moreover, it was the Bible of choice for many of the English Puritans and Pilgrims who later settled in America. The Geneva Bible's impact reverberated far beyond its initial publication, leaving a lasting legacy on both religious scholarship and English culture. Description Brown leather binding
