The Geneva Bible, first published in 1560, was a significant English translation of the Bible during the Protestant Reformation. It was the work of Protestant scholars exiled in Geneva, Switzerland, and was the first English Bible to be fully translated from the original Hebrew and Greek texts. Known for its scholarly annotations and commentary reflecting Reformed theology, the Geneva Bible was widely used by English-speaking Protestants and played a crucial role in shaping religious and cultural developments in England and beyond during the 16th and 17th centuries.
