George Washington and the First Bible in New York

The first Bible printed in New York was the 1792 Rev. John Brown Self-Interpreting Bible, subscribed by George Washington. Over 150 years, 26 editions were printed. Brown, self-taught and financially struggling, created a unique Bible with scripture-based notes. He passed away in 1787, emphasizing a lifetime devoted to preaching.
