Description: About this item:The Geneva Bible will forever remain one of the most powerful books in human history. When Mary I of England was in power, between 1553 and 1558, she burned 280 Protestants at the stake and imprisoned many others. During this period, people were not allowed to own a Bible or even read the text in a vernacular, the English language and the priests read the Bible in the Latin language during church services. The Protestants wanted to have access to the Bible and read it in a language they could easily understand. Due to the persecution the Protestants faced during Mary's rule, many of them relocated to other parts of Europe where they had the freedom to practice their faith. Some Protestant scholars migrated to Geneva and worked tirelessly to translate the original Greek and Hebrew texts into their vernacular, the English Language. The first edition of their translation was published in 1560 and gained widespread recognition. It became the bible that some renowned historical figures like John Knox, William Shakespeare, Oliver Cromwell, John Donne, and many others read. In this book, you will find the Apocryphal books of the 1560 Geneva Bible, the books considered too esoteric to be read by everyone, the Deuterocanonical books as they are also called. Key Features of this Book: Large Print: The book is printed in 14 pts font size. The Book Size: We chose to have this book printed in 7 by 10 inches size to maintain a balance between readability and portability. Meticulous Translation: While giving accurate translation, we tried to maintain the bible text in its poetic and complex style. Creamy Interior: We chose to have this book printed on creamy paper over white paper to enhance its durability and readability. Complete Apocrypha: All the Deuterocanonical books are included in this book, they are: The Book of Tobit The Book of Judith The Wisdom of Solomon (also called The Book of Wisdom) The Book of Sirach (also called Ecclesiasticus) The First Book of Maccabees (also called 1 Maccabees) The Second Book of Maccabees (also called 2 Maccabees) The Book of Baruch Letter of Jeremiah (sometimes included as part of Baruch, it is included as Baruch Chapter 6 in this book) Additions to Esther Prayer of Manasseh 1 Esdras 2 Esdras The Apocrypha books give historical context to some of the stories we are already familiar with. To have an in-depth understanding of the Bible, the Apocrypha is a must-read.
