Description: This Bible is considered "one of the great achievements of the 16th Century". Queen Elizabeth I encouraged a renewed interest in the English Bible, but the Great Bible (Miles Coverdale, 1540) was still the version authorized for church use. It was clear that the Geneva Bible (published by Calvinist exiles in 1560 in Switzerland) was a superior translation. However , some was found offensive to the Crown. Because of this, Archbishop of Canterbury, Matthew Parker, headed a revision committee that included several Bishops and Biblical scholars. Few changes were made in the Old Testament. The New Testament did see changes that were headed by Matthew Parker, himself. The new authorized Bible was named the Bishop's Bible due to the dominate role the Bishop's had in its creation. This Bishop's Bible comes with a hard case. This Bible measures approx. 7.75 in. by 11 in. and 2.75 in. thick.
