About the Japanese Bible Society: The Japanese Bible Society (JBS) has a rich history dating back to the early 19th century when Christian missionaries first arrived in Japan. The society played a vital role in the translation, distribution, and promotion of the Bible in Japan. The first Protestant missionaries, such as Karl Friedrich August Gützlaff and C. M. Williams, arrived in Japan in the mid-19th century, and they recognized the need for translating the Bible into Japanese to share the Christian message with the local population. The translation process began with the New Testament, and by 1888, the entire Bible was translated into Japanese. In 1901, the Japanese Bible Society was officially established in Tokyo with the mission of translating, publishing, and distributing the Bible in Japan. The society worked tirelessly to make the Bible accessible to the Japanese people, who had limited exposure to Christianity at the time. The Japanese Bible Society's work faced challenges during World War II, as religious activities, including Bible distribution, were restricted. However, after the war, the society resumed its efforts to make the Bible available to the Japanese people. They provided Bibles to churches, schools, and individuals, promoting the message of Christianity and supporting the growth of Christian communities in Japan. The Japanese Bible Society also engaged in various educational and promotional activities to encourage Bible reading and understanding. They organized seminars, workshops, and Bible study groups to foster a deeper appreciation for the scriptures. Over the years, the society continued to revise and improve its Japanese Bible translations to ensure accuracy and relevance to contemporary readers. They also developed various editions and formats, making the Bible accessible to people of all ages and backgrounds. Today, the Japanese Bible Society remains committed to its mission of Bible translation and distribution. They collaborate with other Christian organizations and work to promote the values and teachings of the Bible in Japanese society, contributing to the cultural and spiritual heritage of Japan.

Most importantly, the condition of the book was as specified. Also, international delivery (from the USA to the UK) was prompt, and the price was reasonable for an out-of-print book. Many thanks for that. In particular, *very* effective cardboard *and* cellophane packaging was used to protect the book during its international transit. This meant the book arrived safe and in great condition, with no "dings" or bends. As such, I *highly* recommend this seller (1-highbidder/Yesterdaze Closet).

I can't rate this seller highly enough. They were earnest to stick to shipping times promised but realized the product they had was not what was not the quality pictured, so they messaged me ahead of time with solutions (full refund, return the original and get a new item or keep what was sent with a partial refund.) I chose the full refund/new item - it came quickly and packaged so well! I appreciate also that they use recycled items for packaging. Thanks for a great eBay shopping experience.
