Latter-day Saint (Mormon) edition

Complete Bible

This is the edition of the King James Version used by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (also known as the Mormons). It contains cross-references to the Book of Mormon as well as to other books used by the Mormons. A bible dictionary, maps, topical guide, and quotes from the Joseph Smith Translation are also printed. An article in the October 1979 issue of Ensign describes the process in creating this bible; it can be read here. A 2013 revision fixed typos and made some changes to spelling and punctuation.
