More Romanist propaganda coming from Reformed academics
This online bookstore is associated with the Calvin500 site. Look at its page for the Geneva Bible:
"As its popularity and distribution increased, the Geneva Bible’s marginal notes incurred the wrath of the King of England. Specifically, the marginal note for Exodus 1:9 indicated that the Hebrew midwives were correct in disobeying the orders of the Egyptian King. King James railed against this interpretation, calling it “seditious.” The tyrant knew that if the people held him accountable to God’s Word, his days as a “Divine Right” king were numbered. Calvin and the Reformers were not about to change the clear meaning of Scripture to cater to the whims of the King or the Pope. The Geneva Bible began the unstoppable march to liberty in England, Scotland, and America."
1. The verse is Exodus 1:19 not 1:9 (Reformed academics don't actually read even their precious Romanist Critical Text bibles, they talk off 'papers' that are multi-generations away from the original source).
2. The "Egyptian King" was Pharaoh ('And the midwiues answered Pharaoh' [Geneva trans.), and King James, a Bible-believing Christian would hardly have identified his crown with an Egyptian Pharoah. This is not even effective mockery.
3. The Geneva notes simply stated, regarding the action of the midwives: "Their disobedience in this was lawful, but their deception is evil." To not follow an order that contradicts God's sixth commandment is lawful. This is not a comment or view that was radical in the world and beliefs of the devout English King.
4. The belief that a Bible should not be plastered with the words of man on every page is hardly a sentiment that goes against Reformation good sense. And the translation itself of the AV1611 is basically the same as the Geneva, something the writer of the paragraph above is attempting to give a false impression about.
5. "The tyrant knew that if the people held him accountable to God’s Word, his days as a “Divine Right” king were numbered." A Protestant King, a Bible-believing King, and hence a target of deep hatred to Romanists masquerading as Reformed Christians, just as the Romanists of King James' day hated his soul and started all the smearing of him which these fake Reformed Christians continue to mouth this very day.
6. "Calvin and the Reformers were not about to change the clear meaning of Scripture to cater to the whims of the King or the Pope." These Reformed academics don't know Calvin, don't care to know Calvin, and will get their reward as they face Christians such as Calvin and King James and the King and Judge Jesus Christ when the time comes. The sentence quoted here is pure Jesuit counter-reformation double-speak and filth.
7. "The Geneva Bible began the unstoppable march to liberty in England, Scotland, and America." Yes, and thank your bloody Romanist Queen ugly Mary for that. The devil and his followers do themselves in when they most think they are winning. And that Geneva Bible is the same Bible as the Authorized Version of 1611, no matter how often you filthy Jesuits calling yourselves Reformed Christian academic clerics shit on it. You're not worthy of the Geneva or the AV1611. You don't value either. You push the Romanist Critical Text filth and perversions. You don't fool any of God's own.
