[QUOTE="Tahmoor girl, post: 4256854, member: 20883"]No. It's more like the text was translated. I just asked my father, (who's only interested in the television), where his father got that old Bible. He said that he thinks it was given by a relative. Then I showed it to him and he said "Oh, I remember a small one.". I have a small old one too, but that one was my mothers. I've been reading the words, and notice that the word 'Jehovah' appears in the notes where it doesn't in the printed text. I'm now going to research when English Bibles were released in the 19th century. Just because the notes were written in the 1870s, doesn't mean this Bible was published in the 1870s. I'm being careful to keep it in tact, even leaving the little bookmarks in place. It's not in excellent condition, but all the pages are there. If it was used in a translation, how did it end up in Australia?[/QUOTE]
