Small folio 8 by 11-1/2 inches contemporary full paneled reverse calf rebacked raised bands red morocco spine label contemporary brass catches and renewed brass clasps. $17000.Sixth edition first small folio edition of the �Bishops� Bible��the Anglican translation commissioned to check the Geneva Bible�s influence and �considered one of the great achievements of the 16th century� J. Paul Getty Museum A Thousand Years of the Bible 70�with much woodcut ornamentation complete in contemporary reverse paneled calf boards.Queen Elizabeth I ""encouraged a renewed interest in the English Bible but the Great Bible prepared by Miles Coverdale and published in 1540 was still the version authorized for church use. It was clear that the Geneva Bible published 1560 by Calvinist exiles in Switzerland was in many ways a superior translation; some of its notes however were offensive to the Crown. Consequently it seemed advisable to undertake a revision of the Great Bible. Matthew Parker Archbishop of Canterbury headed the revision committee which included many bishops and well-known biblical scholars. Few changes were made in the Old Testament. There is evidence of genuine scholarly learning in the changes to the New Testament where Parker himself worked� The new authorized version was called the 'Bishops' Bible because of the dominant role they played"" Bible 100 Landmarks 63. First published 1568. The 1602 edition would serve as the basis of the King James Bible 1611.
