The Geneva Bible

The Geneva Bible is not well known even among commited Christian believers. I was not aware of it until a few years ago. But history reveals that it once had a much brighter spotlight.

"This was the Bible read by William Shakespeare, by John Donne, and by John Bunyan, author of Pilgrim's Progress. It was the Bible that was brought to America on the Mayflower and used by Oliver Cromwell in the English Civil War."

For more information, check out the The Geneva Bible entry at the Wikipedia.
