The bible that gave way to the modern world, comes complete with study notes. I believe it to be the most accurate bible today. ( ) A marvelous glimpse at the mind of the early reformers and our Christian ancestors. If one could sit at the feet of the English speaking reformed community at Geneva or of the pilgrim fathers who came to America, this is the type of Bible teaching that would have been received. I find the Geneva translation actually more readable than the KJV even though its an earlier one. The margin notes (actually at the bottom of the page in this edition) are very helpful both in understanding beliefs in 1599 and in understanding the scriptures in general. It was King James' hatred of these margin notes (which condemned tyrants and called for even kings to be in submission to the law of God) that in fact led to the KJV which he hoped would supplant the Geneva Bible in the English speaking world. That is eventually what happened with the Geneva Bible becoming obscure. I'm very happy that someone has taken the time to re-issue this important piece of Christian history. Zeige 5 von 5
