The Anglo-American Bible Revision (1879) is a book that documents the revision of the Bible by the American Revision Committee in collaboration with the British scholars. The book details the process of revising the King James Version of the Bible, which was initially published in 1611. The American Revision Committee was established in 1870 to address the need for a more accurate and modern version of the Bible that would be accessible to contemporary readers.The book provides a historical overview of the King James Version of the Bible and its impact on English literature and culture. It also explains the reasons for the revision and the challenges faced by the committee during the process. The committee aimed to produce a version of the Bible that was faithful to the original texts while also being readable and understandable to modern readers.The book includes the revised text of the New Testament and Psalms, as well as an appendix containing notes and explanations of the changes made. The revised text is presented side by side with the King James Version for comparison, allowing readers to see the differences between the two versions.Overall, the Anglo-American Bible Revision (1879) is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Bible and the process of Bible translation and revision. It provides insight into the challenges faced by scholars in their efforts to make the Bible more accessible to contemporary readers while remaining faithful to the original texts.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
