The 1662 Book of Common Prayer

International Edition

Herausgeber: Bray, Samuel L; Keane, Drew Nathaniel

Beschreibung

The Book of Common Prayer (1662) is one of the most beloved liturgical texts in the Christian church. But the classic text presents several difficulties for contemporary users, especially those outside the Church of England. This new international edition gently updates the text for contemporary use, with obscure phrases revised and treasured prayers from later Anglican tradition appended.
