TODAY'S DEVOTION ON THE BIBLE

Of all the 16th century English translations of the Bible the most popular by far was the 1560 Geneva Bible, so called because it was printed in Geneva Switzerland. Geneva was an important center of the Protestant Reformation, being the city of both John Calvin and John Knox. The Geneva Bible was published in legible type, a convenient size, and with accompanying commentary; it, therefore, became the Bible of the English household.
