Edition Notes
New Testament has special t.-p.: The New Testament of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Translated out of the original Greek ...
Page 310 erroneously numbered 110.
The two frontispieces are inscribed: "Engraved for Thomas's edition of the Bible", and the N.T. frontis. bears the engraver's name.
"This edition was issued also in two volumes, and differs materially in its typographical condition from that in folio [of the same year] by the same publisher ... It has ... marginal notes and references, 'all examined and compared with the text by the minister of Holden,'--the Rev. Joseph Avery--and running head-lines of contents at the head of the columns. None of these are in the folio edition. On the other hand, this quarto wants the woodcuts at the head of each of the divisions of the volume, and has ornamental initial letters at the beginning of these divisions only, instead of each book. According to Isaiah Thomas' Catalogue of books for sale ... this Bible was issued in three different styles, viz.: with 48 copper plates and Concordance; without plates or Concordance; and with Concordance."--E. B. O'Callaghan, A list of editions of the Holy Scriptures.
This edition has no Concordance or plates.
