B, 1589 Geneva Bible translated from original Greek and Hebrew
Notes
In 1589, Geneva, nestled at the western edge of Switzerland, was a vibrant hub of religious and political activity. This pivotal year marked a period of significant religious reform and political intrigue in the city, as it continued to be a focal point for Protestantism amidst the tumult of the European Reformation. Led by figures such as Theodore Beza, Geneva maintained its reputation as a bastion of Calvinist theology, attracting scholars, theologians, and refugees fleeing persecution from across Europe. Amidst the intellectual fervor, Geneva's streets buzzed with debates over doctrine, governance, and the future of Protestantism. The city's commitment to religious freedom and its influential role in shaping the course of European history made Geneva a beacon of enlightenment during this era.
