Anglo-American Bible Revision: Its Necessity And Purpose (1879)

""Anglo-American Bible Revision: Its Necessity and Purpose"" is a book written by the American Sunday School Union in 1879. The book discusses the need for a revision of the Bible, specifically the King James Version, in order to make it more accessible and understandable for modern readers. The authors argue that the language of the King James Version is outdated and difficult to understand, particularly for younger readers and those who are not native English speakers. They also suggest that a revised version of the Bible would be more accurate and faithful to the original texts. The book provides examples of passages from the King James Version that are particularly difficult to understand and proposes alternative translations. Overall, ""Anglo-American Bible Revision"" is a call to action for scholars and religious leaders to work together to create a more accessible and accurate version of the Bible for contemporary readers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
