About This Item
1663 MASSIVE Dutch Holy BIBLE Illustrated Canaan MAPS Elzevier Netherlands RARE
An absolutely stunning, massive Dutch Bible!
Published in 1663 by Elzevier, this incredible two-volume folio Bible is one of Elzevier's most famous published works. In addition to the expected Old and New Testaments, this Bible features the Apocrypha. However, the scripture is not the only important aspect of this edition. These enormous volumes feature impressive illustrations and maps including a map of the world. Other maps depict the routes of the wandering apostles as well as a view of the land of Canaan.
