About us
This app as produced in 2025 to mark the 250th anniversary of the Manx Bible. The 1819 edition of the Manx Bible was the last edition published by the British ad Foreign Bible Society. It was a slightly updated edition of the 1775 edition. It has been checked and corrected by the Manx Baelic Society. The texts were digitised with the help of volunteers from MissionAssist.
This app was brought you by the British and Foreign Bible Society (BFBS) in partnership with the American Bible Society (ABS). This app is one of a growing number of Global.Bible apps which help distribute the Bible across the world. To find an app in another language please go to https://global.bible/
