The Geneva Bible 1560 EditionThe Geneva Bible, first published in 1560, is a significant English translation that was produced by a group of Protestant scholars in exile in Geneva. They were fleeing the repressive reign of the Roman Catholic Queen Mary I of England. Under the guidance of figures like Miles Coverdale and John Knox, and influenced by John Calvin, this Bible became known for its comprehensive annotations and its innovative inclusion of numbered verses The term “Apocrypha” refers to a collection of texts that were not universally accepted into the biblical canon. In the context of the Geneva Bible of 1560, the Apocrypha is described as books that were not agreed upon by common consent to be read and expounded publicly in the Church. However, these texts, stemming from godly men, were accepted for private reading to enhance the understanding of history and to instruct in godly living. The Apocrypha within the Geneva Bible, therefore, served as a historical and moral supplement to the canonical book.This Book is perfect for scholars, theologians, and anyone with a passion for religious history, this book is a must-have for those seeking to uncover the secrets of the past.
