The entire Geneva Bible was released in 1560. It was innovative in both text and format. It was the first English Bible to have modern verse divisions, chapter divisions, italics to indicate words not in the original language, to use plain Roman type, which was more readable than the old Gothic type, and in fact the first English "study Bible."

Book Description
"This Bible was translated by English Protestants in John Calvin's Geneva. It was then used by the Puritans and brought over to America by the Pilgrims. Even though it was overshadowed by the King James translation, it was well-respected at the time because of its impeccable scholarship and clear renderings, and the King James Version built heavily upon it's work. The Modernized Geneva Bible (MGB) makes this version accessible to modern readers wanting to gain fresh insight from daily devotions with a new translation. For this all-new version we have removed archaic or distracting language from the original and have deleted the original commentary in the footnotes. It is bound in slim, easy-to-read volumes on beautiful cream paper, making it a clean, timeless version that is ideal for daily Bible reading. Chapter and verse markings are included for ease of reference. This edition contains the complete New Testament, and individual copies of individual books in the New Testament are all available too. A modernization of the Old Testament is in the works"--
