Dig deeper into the original biblical languages with this rare, vintage September 1987 Large Type Handy Reference Edition of the Newberry Bible, published by Penfold Book & Bible House and printed at the prestigious University Press, Cambridge. Also famously known as The Englishman’s Bible, the Newberry Bible is a legendary and highly sought-after tool for serious Bible scholars and teachers. While maintaining the majestic, poetic text of the Authorized King James Version, Thomas Newberry integrated a brilliant, unobtrusive system of symbols and markings directly into the text to reveal the exact structural details of the original Hebrew and Greek. Key Features of the Newberry System: Original Hebrew & Greek Marks: Simple signs indicating verb tenses, moods, participles, numbers, and emphatic pronouns without disrupting the flow of the English text. Key Terms Highlighted: Leading words in the text are printed in bold type, and divine titles are distinguished and explained in the margin. Connecting Hyphens: Lower hyphens connect multiple English words that represent only a single word in the original biblical languages. Single-Column Layout: The scripture is arranged in a highly readable single-column format across the page, making it much easier on the eyes than standard double-column print. Large Type Handy Format: Offers clear, large, readable print in a portable size that is comfortable to hold for personal study, preaching, or teaching.
