The Geneva Bible : with original Apocrypha and original spelling texts.

Summary:

"A Note for the Reader: This edition faithfully reproduces the Geneva Bible as it was in 1560, complete with the original texts. It is presented in early English, refelcting the language and orthography of that time. This choice has been made to preserve the historical authenticity and original flavor of the Bible as it was experienced by readers in the 16th Century. As such, contempory readers may find the language distinct from modern English standards. This serves not only as a window into the past but also as a reminder of the enduring legacy of these sacred texts." [title page]
