Bible (Fenton) 01-07, 09-10: Holy Bible in Modern English, The: Genesis - Judges, 1 & 2 Samuel

The Holy Bible in Modern English, translated by Ferrar Fenton, was first published in 1903, with translation work beginning in 1853. This translation is notable for its chronological arrangement of biblical books, aligning with the Hebrew Bible, and for rendering the name of God as 'The Ever-Living.' Fenton's work includes a unique translation of the Psalms into musical verse, aiming to preserve their original form. The New Testament is based on the Westcott and Hort Greek text, with a distinctive ordering that places the Gospel of John before Matthew.
