5B, 1599 Geneva Bible
Notes
The 1599 Geneva Bible holds a significant place in history as one of the most influential English translations of the Bible. Produced by English Protestant exiles in Geneva during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I, it was the first English Bible to use numbered verses and included extensive study notes, making it highly popular among both clergy and laity. Its emphasis on Calvinist theology and its critical commentary on political and religious issues of the time shaped its reputation as a Bible of the Reformation era, influencing subsequent translations and religious thought.
