This is the Bible for Fundamentalists. I mean this quite literally, since Scofield was one of the chief purveyors of Darbyism in the 20th century. Fascinating (if unreliable and sometimes amusing) notes and essays accompanying the classic King James ("Authorized") Version text.

My edition was given to me for my birthday by my mother; my 14th, if memory serves. I sometimes tear up when I look at it.

The King James Version, of course, is the most literarily valuable of the many English translation of the Hebrew and Greek texts. Other versions, even the few decent literal translations, are paltry things compared to the brilliance of this work, translated with one eye on Tyndale's great efforts, despite Tyndale having been executed by the English church just a few years before.
