Podcast with Dale Mason on One of George Washington’s Most Treasured Bibles

Topic: The George Washington Bible.

George Washington was a man who read the Bible a great deal, as well as the 1662 Book of Common Prayer of the Anglican Church. George Washington’s favorite Bible verse came from Micah 4:4 in the Old Testament: “But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree; and none shall make them afraid: for the mouth of the Lord of hosts hath spoken it.” He viewed this as a metaphor for the new nation. Here in America you would not be persecuted for your supposedly heterodox religious or political views. Washington was a key subscriber to a special edition of the Bible. And now Dale Mason, an executive at Answers in Genesis, has painstakingly put together a new reprint of the Brown’s Self- Interpretive Family Bible of 1792. The name of this reprint is The Forgotten George Washington Bible. www.georgewashingtonbible.com
