1834 Bagster Polyglott Bible – English Version with Parallel Ancient Languages

This is an authentic 1834 English Version of the Polyglott Bible, printed in London by Samuel Bagster, one of the most influential Bible publishers of the 19th century. Bagster’s Polyglott editions were created specifically for advanced study, allowing readers to compare Scripture across multiple ancient and modern languages.

This edition contains the Old and New Testaments in English, printed interleaved page-for-page with references to the uniform editions of the Hebrew text and translations in Greek, Latin, French, German, Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese. The layout was innovative for its time and aimed at scholars, theologians, and serious students of biblical languages.

Bound in full leather with gilt tooling, this volume reflects both academic intent and high craftsmanship. The text block remains clean and legible, and the binding is intact, showing honest age-appropriate wear consistent with a nearly 200-year-old working scholarly Bible.

This is not a modern reprint or devotional Bible. It is a historical research tool from the early 19th century, produced during a formative period of biblical textual scholarship.
