The Apocrypha in the Revised Version (Oxford World's Classics)
$30.00$45.00
The Apocrypha in the Revised Version, published by Oxford University Press as part of the celebrated World’s Classics series.
This compact Oxford edition contains the Apocryphal books translated from the Greek and Latin tongues, following the historic 1611 King James Bible tradition and later revised against ancient authorities.
The Apocrypha occupies a fascinating place in biblical and literary history. These writings were included in many early Bibles and influenced Christian theology, Renaissance art, and English literature, while later being omitted from many Protestant editions.
Edition details: Oxford University Press, London: Humphrey Milford. Dark blue cloth boards with gilt spine lettering, embossed crest to front board, and ribbon marker.
