Description

The Holy Bible (1708) is an early 18th-century printing of the King James Version (KJV), known for its majestic language and lasting influence on English-speaking Christianity. Paired with it, the Book of Common Prayer (1711) reflects the liturgical traditions of the Church of England, offering prayers, rites, and services central to Anglican worship. Together, these works represent the spiritual and cultural foundations of early 18th-century English Protestantism.
