Item Description

First edition, first printing of this 1560 Geneva Facsimile Reproduction. The book measures approximately 11" tall by 8.75 inches wide by 3.25 inches thick and is bound in hardcover burgundy bonded leather with gold stamping along the spine.

Issued in 2020 to commemorate the 400th anniversary of the Pilgrims’ landing at Plymouth Rock, reprinting a facsimile of the important Geneva Bible along with the Mayflower Compact. Binding is stamped in gold with a painted image of the Mayflower on the front cover. Pretty much like new, light dust and shelf wear.

The Geneva Bible was highly significant to the Pilgrims for several reasons. Firstly, it was the Bible that they brought with them on the Mayflower when they journeyed to America. Secondly, the Geneva Bible was the most popular English Bible of the time, and it was the version of the Bible that the Pilgrims read and studied. The extensive commentary notes in the margins of the Geneva Bible were also highly valued by the Pilgrims, as they offered guidance and interpretation of the biblical text.

Additionally, the Geneva Bible was closely associated with the Puritans, who were a significant influence on the Pilgrims. The Puritans were a religious group in England who sought to "purify" the Church of England, and they were known for their strict adherence to biblical teachings. Many of the Pilgrims had ties to the Puritans, and they shared their commitment to living according to the Bible's teachings.

The Geneva Bible played a significant role in shaping the religious beliefs and practices of the Pilgrims, and it helped to establish the foundations of the Christian faith in America
