Rating: - Why I purchased The Word of Life in the Geneva Facsimile
For many years I have studied the Bible and found many translations and versions available. My purchase of this Geneva Bible facsimile is to help my own Bible studies. Remember that many faithful belivers died, burned at the stake and imprisoned to bring us God's Word in English, and the best we can do is read and try to see what the Gospel really is. The Best version to help is the King James Version (KJV), most commonly used by dedicated Bible students. Then there is the Revised Version (RV), which ... Read More
Rating: - an error
I join other reviewers in enthusiastically recommending this wonderful facsimile of the Bible that most influenced Shakespeare. I am writing to report a problem in my copy-- the verso (back) of p. 429 is a duplication of the correct verso of p. 430, so my copy is missing the correct verso of 429. I suspect this error affects everyone's copy. I'm hoping the publisher will correct this error in future printings.

Rating: - Historical and Fun
This 1560 Geneva Bible serves as an historical monument which demonstrates how men strived to keep the word of God alive. This edition is "The" English Bible which was in general public use prior to the publication of the King James Version. This Bible represents an era frozen in time.

The 1560 Geneva facsimile bible... Here's history you can hold in your hand without it costing you an arm and a leg. You get a copy of the 1560 Geneva Bible in the black (Or Gothic) script. It is 100% readable! If you've read the King James you should be able to understand this one. This is a great historic piece to have. I don't recommend this be a child's first bible. The well seasoned christian will greatly appreciate this masterpiece.
Rating: - Outstanding piece of Bible history.
At the time of this review I have only briefly read from this volume. At first I was intimidated by the size. And upon opening the cover the type and text in a Gothic style takes getting used to. As a person that is very intrigued in the history of the Bible in the English language it is a great piece of treasure (even if it is a facsimile).
