HUNT FOR OUR OLDEST BIBLE

From today's Leicester Mercury:

Hunt for our oldest Bible 

The search is on for the area's oldest Bible. 

Too mark the 400th anniversary of the publication of the King James Bible, Leicester Christadelphians are holding a Bible exhibition – and they are offering a £20 book token to whoever brings along the oldest copy. 

Exhibits will include a Wycliffe Bible, named after Leicestershire theologian John Wycliffe, who oversaw the first English translation of the Bible, completed in 1382. 

A free Bible is on offer to the first 20 people who visit the exhibition and request a copy. 

The free exhibition is at 4 Market Place, Leicester, from October 17 to October 21, between 10.30am and 5pm.
