1 | what about the K J V | Rev 3:10 | Reformer Joe | 25126 | ||
Ed: I am by no means an expert on the Geneva Bible, but here is a link which explains a little about the Geneva/King James situation: http://www.reformed.org/documents/geneva/Geneva.html And here is an example of the notes from the 1599 version of Romans: http://www.reformed.org/documents/geneva/romans.html Hope this gives you a good idea! --Joe! |

2 | what about the K J V | Rev 3:10 | EdB | 25160 | ||
Joe Thanks for the information. All my training on the Geneva Bible had left out any information about the extensive informational notes within it. I was always told there was just some minor translator type notes and I thought the Geneva Bile that is now in print had just included commentary by the modern editors of the Bible. I had heard the story about King James and his dislike for the translation of the King Asa story and therefore had ordered his translators to correctly translate the passage on King Asa but they translated it exactly as it is today and the King wanting to continue win the esteem and continuing support of the people allowed the work to proceed. I never knew it was directed at the the Geneva Bible I just assumed it was aimed at the Great Bible.Thanks again for the info. EdB |
