This is truly a remarkable peace of Biblical English history printed as a handsome book. The Matthews Bible take the reader back in time... even before the famed King James Version of 1611 to a time when no verse numbers were applied to the text... only chapter divisions. But this doesn't make it less enjoyable to read. While some of the old English text definitely takes some getting used to, it can be picked up on quickly. This Bible also contains illustrations throughout going as far a showing the items of the Tabernacle, temple and so forth. If you're looking for an accurate facsimile of an early English Bible, you can't go wrong with this one!

This is a great book, old english and original spelling. It is cool to set it side by side with new version and compare. Nice binding also.

Myself being brought up catholic, and told many things contrary, to realize the extent these men went to bringing about the Word of God into our own language is simply amazing. We all need to see this dedicated effort and courage which had such an affect on western culture.
