Notes

Thumb Bibles are compact editions of the Bible designed to be small enough to fit comfortably in the palm of one's hand, often no larger than a thumb. These miniature Bibles typically feature tiny print and thin pages, yet they contain the complete text of the Bible. Thumb Bibles are convenient for individuals who want to carry the sacred scriptures with them wherever they go, offering a portable and easily accessible version of religious texts. Despite their size, these diminutive Bibles play a significant role in providing spiritual guidance and comfort to those who seek a compact and portable way to engage with their faith.
