Halley's Bible Handbook in Russian / New Edition / Russian Language Edition,
This review is from: Halley's Bible Handbook in Russian / New Edition / Russian Language Edition (Hardcover)
Peter the Great felt that the mass of the Russian people needed a Bible in the vernacular and authorized Pastor Gluck in 1703 to prepare such an edition. Unhappily Gluck died in 1705 and nothing is known of his work. It was left to the 19th century in connection with the establishment of the Russian Bible Society (founded in 1812 at Saint Petersburg, with the consent of Alexander I) to prepare a Bible in the vernacular. The work was under taken by Filaret, rector of the Theological Academy of Saint Petersburg (afterward metropolitan of Moscow), and other members of the faculty of the academy.Halley's Bible Handbook in Russian / New Edition / Russian Language Edition
