NEW: Sample of Genesis & Proverbs.
In September 2015 Schuyler Bible Publishers embarked on an ambitious project to create a Bible distinguished in style and form that would be in some measure commensurate to the majesty of the “noblest monument of English prose” – the King James Bible. This is the Schuyler Canterbury King James Bible. It is difficult to over state the influence that the King James Version had on Christianity and the English language in general. The King James Version was virtually the Standard English Bible for over 300 years. Even today, the King James Bible sells consistently within the top 3 translations in the United States. Interestingly – in terms of the most read Bible in the US – it outpaces all other translations by more than 2:1. In terms of global online searches, it eclipses all others. The Canterbury Edition is slated for a mid to late 2016 release date. Schuyler has commissioned a famous Bible Designer in Denmark (2Krogh) to create a Bible that is legible, beautiful and embodies the majesty of the King James Version. Other experts in the field have also been consulted on this project. This Bible is a joy to read. Please share this page with anyone that enjoys the Bible and enjoys unique ground breaking (and colorful) Bible design!
