The Bible Collection at the Library of Congress offers an unparalleled opportunity to witness the Bible's transformation over 800 years. With 1,500 editions of the Bible in more than 150 languages, this splendid gathering helps to document the history of Western ideas, religion, art, printing, and illustration. Whether to understand the history of the text, its production, or its reception over time, the Library's Bible Collection offers a portal to the history of the book.

Manuscript Bible from England

Creating a manuscript Bible was a complex and time-consuming task. By the thirteenth century, most Bibles were copied by scribes from an exemplar, or master copy, and were produced in greater quantity than before to meet the demand for the text.

Although the larger lectern or folio Bibles lent themselves to elaborate decoration and illumination, smaller, hand-held Bibles, such as this thirteenth-century English copy, were more modest in appearance and more affordable for the clergy and students who acquired them. Several copyists were responsible for transcribing this manuscript Bible, all of them writing in an extremely small cursive form of "blackletter" known as littera textualis currens that allowed more than 700 words per page.

Psalter from Germany

The scroll decoration found in this early thirteenth-century initial is typical of the work found in southern Germany in this period. The vine-like scroll weaves and spirals around a floral decoration to form the letter "B" in "Beatus" (Blessed), the opening word of this Book of Psalms. The manuscript's six large initial letters are good examples of the simple, natural forms used to decorate manuscripts in this early period.

The Great Bible or Cranmer's Bible

Known by several different names, the Great Bible, or the Cromwell Bible, was the first English version of the sacred text to be authorized. King Henry VIII (reigned 1509-1547) requested Myles Coverdale and Sir Thomas Cromwell to supervise its creation for use in the Church of England.

Today the book, especially the 1540 edition, is referred to as the "Cranmer Bible," in reference to the preface by Thomas Cranmer (1489-1556), first Protestant Archbishop of Canterbury. Much of the text has its origins in the earlier translation of the Bible by William Tyndale (ca. 1494-1536). The Psalms that appear in the Book of Common Prayer originate from this Bible, rather than the King James Bible of 1611.

The availability of an English Bible caused controversy during Henry's reign. He grew concerned about the consequences of allowing the lower classes to read the Bible and later placed restrictions on its editions and uses.

The Geneva Bible

The Geneva Bible, which was published in English in Switzerland in 1560 by English Protestants, is also known as the "Breeches Bible" because in its translation of Genesis, Adam and Eve mask their shame by sewing pants, or "breeches," out of fig leaves. The Geneva Bible was used by the Pilgrims and Puritans in New England until it was gradually replaced by the King James Bible.
