Title: 
Leaf from the Pearl Bible
Creator: 
Field, John
Summary: 
This edition, commonly called Pearl Bible, no doubt on account of its being the first English Bible to use the diminutive size type generally known by that name. Many omissions and printer's errors occur: 1 Corinthians vi. 9: "Know ye not that the unrighteous shall inherit the kingdom of God?" It is also said that Field received 1500 from the independents to corrupt a text in Acts vi. 3 (by printing a 'ye' instead of 'we') to sanction the right of the people to appoint their pastors.
