William W. Nelson

NELSON BIBLE AND RELIGIOUS BOOK COLLECTION (eBook, ePUB)

A Treatise (Final Revision November 6, 2022)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The work before you is the product of a collector of Bibles and religious texts. But as one swiftly discovers upon reading his treatise, William W. Nelson was more than just a collector: he was a self-taught theologian, an intellectual, a meticulous archivist. In what has become the product of an over twenty-year-long past-time, this final revision provides close readings and notable eccentricities of Nelson's lifetime collection of Bibles and religious works. It is often said that every written work remains unfinished. And this book is no different - there is always more that could have been said, more archaic texts that could have been discovered, and more revelations deduced. But this book might just be as comprehensive as a book of its kind can get.

Autorenporträt

Bill Nelson The first in his family to attend college, Bill Nelson graduated from the University of Oklahoma with a degree in History, Literature, and Philosophy. Though he considered a life in the ministry, he ultimately decided on a career as a corporate attorney, while simultaneously developing expertise in various other interests, including Biblical Studies. Bill became a respected authority on the history of the Bible, and also an expert on many of the different Bibles that have been published since the advent of the printing press. Over his life he amassed an extensive collection of Bibles, including the "Geneva Bible" from 1580, the King James Bible from 1613, several Latin Vulgate Bibles, and many more. Bill's lectures at The Woodlands Methodist Church on the history of the Bible were well-attended and enjoyed.
