Poof, they just stopped listening to the words of the pope and followed the bible alone.

Have you ever seen a Calvinist Bible? I'm guessing not. The margins are jammed with explanations, suggestions, and equivocations.

I agree with you. I forgot the sarc post. I was implying it wasn’t a new thing, it was always there since the bible was written.

I take it you're referring to the Geneva Bible. It's a wonderful resource. The margin notes were written by Godly men, but they are just notes. Not Scripture. Not inspired.

Do you have a Strong's Concordance? That's what the margin notes are in the Geneva Bible.

Vision Forum sells a reprint Geneva Bible, and I was thinking about buying one for historical interest and for beautiful language. However, it's not just the Bible. It's the Bible and commentaries. So bizarre, from people who profess Sola Scripura.
