| About this Listing... |
Description:
On September 5, 1538, a law was passed to the effect that every parish church in England must have a Bible for the people to peruse. Because of the tendency to lose Bibles by theft, most churches chained Bibles to the pulpit or a desk, hence the nickname, CHAINED BIBLES. This Geneva Bible has the original chain and was printed in 1578.
