Bibliotheca

Reintroducing the ancient way to read the Bible: not as a reference book but as a vast treasury of literature. Crowdfunded. Independent. Ecumenical.

@thiswholecity 2. The goal is to make the digital ed. free/donation-based for all who already own the set. But if the print run doesn’t get funded, the digital ed. likely won’t happen. (But I like the idea of putting it up for purchase as a preorder. Thx!)

[Bibliotheca @BibliothecaCo]

@thiswholecity 1. It will be exactly the same as the first printing, with the only difference being that a different family-owned bindery in Germany is mfg it (sadly, the original bindery closed). And we’re fixing a few typos.

@tylrstry @exfundiediary (By no means an endorsement of commentary mag btw—it’s no longer what it was in the 90s)

[Bibliotheca @BibliothecaCo]

@tylrstry @exfundiediary But yeah—can’t do better than Robert Alter’s Hebrew Bible with commentary. Here’s an old article by him that’s very similar to the introduction to his translation: https://t.co/PTWN3H4aDe

A giveaway of the @BibliothecaCo Bible set. This set has been an important piece of growing a new personal appreciation for the literary art and structure of the scriptures. It’s worth buying, but winning a set with the walnut slipcase is even better.

@BartEhrman Another vote heartily in favor!

[Bibliotheca @BibliothecaCo]

@thiswholecity @JBsTwoCents @bibleproject Thanks for the mention @thiswholecity. So glad this has been your experience with Bibliotheca and that it has helped you begin to navigate & read the Bible the way the ancients did. And as a matter of fact, we are up to some things…

[Bibliotheca @BibliothecaCo]

@MUFC1Pablo We didn’t seek one out. We are not officially connected to a denomination—Catholic or Protestant—and we didn’t think to seek one until after production, when folks started asking. But we may seek an imprimatur for the next printing in the next year or two.

[Bibliotheca @BibliothecaCo]

@timetherington These lines in particular are a great example of how preservation of syntax and literal rendering can make a translation more poetic & interesting. It all comes together beautifully at the end, just like the Hebrew. Thanks for posting!

[Bibliotheca @BibliothecaCo]

@TheCalvinistGuy Sorry for the delayed reply. We published end of 2016 & are up & running at https://t.co/hgexFunjRi. Also at https://t.co/oVDzcwvqYz.

[Bibliotheca @BibliothecaCo]

@cp_studio Single-volume NTs are sold out & won’t be back in stock until we do another print run. But there are whispers round here of a scratch & dent sale. There will be nearly-new NTs available. Keep an eye out for announcement.

[Bibliotheca @BibliothecaCo]

@ChrisDuhn Also. the limestone it’s made of (chalk) is naturally white, so no bleach is required in the paper-making process.

[Bibliotheca @BibliothecaCo]

@ChrisDuhn Sorry 4 delay! Yes—naturally acid free and never yellows. I found the paper & only later discovered it was wood-free and all its benefits.

@jeremylalk Hi Jeremy: Our fulfillment partner usually defaults to FedEx Ground. Also, you should’ve received an email w/ tracking info when it shipped.

[Bibliotheca @BibliothecaCo]

@ChrisDuhn Nice custom case! What wood species did you use?

[Bibliotheca @BibliothecaCo]

@narnianjedi There’s also a walnut case available that fits just the four volumes.
