Key Features of the Geneva Bible Then and Now The Geneva Bible was a monumental achievement in the history of Protestant Bible translation.

It will not include a Strong's concordance or other modern features. Yet with commentary in the margins, this revolutionary "study Bible" still holds incredible insights for modern readers. Fascinating Facts About The Geneva Bible Queen Mary's (1553-1558) persecution of her Protestant subjects caused many to flee to the continent to avoid imprisonment or execution. Geneva, Switzerland soon became a center for Protestant biblical scholarship. It was there that a group of the movement's leading lights gathered to undertake a fresh translation of the Scriptures into English: The Geneva Bible. It was the first Bible to include many "study" features, including margin commentary, verses, readable roman type, and more. It was even a quarter of the size of most Bibles at the time, making it easy to carry around! The Pilgrims brought it with them on the Mayflower's perilous voyage to religious freedom. It would have been the version John Bunyan, author of Pilgrim's Progress, would have read.
