This is a stunning large-format antique Family Devotional Bible edited by the renowned Rev. Matthew Henry, one of the most beloved Bible commentators in Christian history.

This edition was hugely popular in its day, printed in massive runs (this being the 147th thousand!). It was designed for family use — for daily reading, study, and reflection.

Bible shows honest age and use consistent with its 140+ years. The leather binding has wear, scuffs, and some fading (especially on the spine and edges), which adds to its antique character. Inside, the pages have the expected toning, and minor marks of an old book, but the text remains clear and readable. There are a couple of pages at the end are partly loose of the binding. It would benefit from gentle cleaning or professional restoration if desired, but many collectors prefer to leave it in its original, lived-in state.
