Description:
"The translation of this popular Bible was made by William Whittingham and other English exiles in Geneva, Switzerland, in 1560, during Queen Mary's (Bloody Mary) reign in England. The New Testament was a revision of Tyndale's text. The Old Testament is based on Tyndale, the Great Bible, as well as Hebrew, Latin, and French texts. The most popular Bible in England until long after the KJV was published, it was the Bible of Shakespeare, the Puritans, and the Pilgrim Fathers. The quarto edition pictured here was printed in 1603."
