Bible Society Circulation

The official reports show that the British and Foreign Bible Society, organized in 1804, has circulated one hundred and sixty million copies of the Bible, or some portion thereof; and the American Bible Society, organized in 1816, has issued about sixty-seven million copies. The total issues of all Bible societies during the century is not less than two hundred and eighty million copies, in addition to what has been done by other agencies, which, it is said, “would doubtless reach a total of at least one-half billion copies.”
