The myriad ways in which Pietists and evangelicals read, preached, translated, and practiced the Bible were inextricable from how they fashioned new forms of devotion, founded institutions, engaged the early Enlightenment, and made sense of their world. This volume provides breadth and texture to the role of Scripture in these related religious traditions. The contributors probe an assortment of primary source material from various confessional, linguistic, national, and regional traditions and feature well-known figures--including August Hermann Francke, Cotton Mather, and Jonathan Edwards--alongside lesser-known lay believers, women, people of color, and so-called radicals and separatists. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePioneering and collaborative, this volume contributes fresh insight into the history of the Bible and the entangled religious cultures of the eighteenth-century Atlantic world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlong with the editors, the contributors to this volume include Ruth Albrecht, Robert E.
