Description
ZECHARIAH 11:8-14:8. “Beholde, the Day of the LORD cometh” (14:1). FIRST EDITION. Great “She” Bible variant. Printed in 1611, published 1611-1613, in London, by Robert Barker. Herbert 319. This leaf, being a printer’s “correction” (spelling and woodcut variations), is slightly distinct from the 1611 “He” variant, and distinct from all other folio editions. FINE condition; light stains to outer margins (see pics), w. three (3) WOODCUT initials. 15.25″ x 10.0″. COA on premium “gold leaf” paper w. signature and seal. Leaf and COA set in a museum-quality Archival Booklet. This important leaf contains a reminder that “the Day of the LORD” (14:1) whether it is a good or a bad thing, is always the LORD’s doing. Indeed, such a “Day” is as though the LORD himself shall appear in Israel’s midst to do what God has promised (14:1-8). As such, the Day of the LORD has been understood as a prophesy of the coming of the Lord, Jesus Christ. Price includes Priority Shipping.
