Binding: hardcover

Section: Christianity-Devotionals/Prayers

The classic text of the 1662 prayer book presents several difficulties for contemporary users, especially those outside the Church of England. The 1662 Book of Common Prayer: International Edition gently updates the text for contemporary use. Prayers specific to England are replaced. Obscure words and phrases have been modestly revised while still preserving the prayer book’s own cadence. Finally, a selection of treasured prayers from the later Anglican tradition is appended.
