Description: About this item:This edition of the Geneva Bible, published first in 1560, stands out as an invaluable artifact of religious and historical significance. The Geneva Bible is notable for being the first English Bible to use verse numbers and also for its influence on early Protestant theology and English translations of the Bible, including the King James Version. This comprehensive edition not only includes the complete canonical texts but also features the Apocrypha, offering a total of 82 books.This 1560 Edition is a reproduction that preserves the original typography and layout, maintaining the historical authenticity of the period. The inclusion of the Apocrypha in this edition adds depth, presenting texts that, while not considered canonical by all traditions, provide additional historical and literary context to the Bible as understood and interpreted during the Reformation.Readers will appreciate the meticulous attention to detail in this reproduction, which not only serves as a functional religious text but also as a collector’s item. It offers a unique window into the religious, cultural, and social dynamics of the 16th century, reflecting the fervor and immediacy of the Reformation period.This edition is particularly suited for scholars, historians, and devout readers interested in the roots of Reformation theology and the development of the English Bible. It allows modern readers to experience the scriptures just as early English Protestants might have, providing not just a foundational religious text but also a profound insight into the intellectual and spiritual life of the era.
