• Got 30m?

     

    If you do, you can purchase your very own book of psalms.

    OK. I’ll admit it’s a bit old. Printed in 1640, in fact. And yes, only 11 of the initial 1,700 print run exist. But, it’s evidently far more accurate than the regular version of the book.

    The psalm book was printed in Cambridge, Massachusetts, for the congregationalist puritans who wanted a version of the psalms which they believed closer to the Hebrew original than the ones they brought with them from England.

    It’s funny  how so many Christians feel their current version of the Bible isn’t accurate enough. Hmmm.

    Nevertheless, start saving your pennies. The book’s hitting the auction block in November.
