I have the 1560 Geneva Bible facsimile from Hendrickson. It took me a few hours to get used to the typesetting and nonstandard spelling, but now I can read it like any other Bible I own. Mine has the same images. I bought it to own a piece of history, but then decided to use it, so it is showing signs of wear. There is a 1599 Geneva Bible with modern typesetting and standardized spelling. I’m thinking about getting that one too.
Thank you for this review. You just saved me from a very unhappy purchase, as you showed the illegible page immediately preceding Ecclesiastes [5:08 into video]. I have the Hendrickson edition of the Geneva 1560, andf I have not seen a single page that is illegible like this edition you review. The reason I was interested in this edition, is because it preports to be enlarged to 125% text size to the original text size at 100%.
Question for you? Where Is Enoch in the Apoclofa. since he was the 7th From Adam . where would all the people that was not added in the bible of there writings in year location?
In my possession rests a faithful reproduction of the venerable Geneva Bible, its ancient script a labyrinth too intricate to traverse. Thus, it stands, a silent sentinel upon my shelf, an ornament of erudition and a testament to time’s relentless march.
One example is they took a few shots at certain people. For example, they spoke against the monarchy, which caused King James to speak against it and prompted him to authorize another translation with fewer notes.
