Finland's third Bible, and the one that settled. It is a revision rather than a fresh translation — the line runs back through Florinus's revision of 1683–85 to the Biblia of 1642, the first complete Finnish Bible. What the 1776 edition changed was the spelling, and with it the reach: it was the first Finnish Bible set in a modernised orthography, and the first printed for domestic use rather than only for the lectern. A Bible a family can own is a different object from a Bible a parish owns.
It held the church's use for a century and a half, until Kirkkoraamattu 1933/38 replaced it, and it did not stop being read when it stopped being official. Two revival movements inside the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland — the Laestadians and the rukoilevaiset, the “Beseechers” — kept it, and use it still. That is why the bare word Biblia in Finnish points here rather than to any older or newer edition, and why the book is also called Vanha kirkkoraamattu, the Old Church Bible.
In this reader it is the middle of the Finnish chain. Open one rung beneath a Kirkkoraamattu 1933/38 verse and this edition appears; open one beneath this and the Biblia of 1642 does. The two rungs should be read differently, though. The 1933/38 translators worked from Hebrew and Greek, so the rung above is succession within one church's Bible rather than derivation. The rung below is the real thing: 1776 is a revision of 1642, and the words on either side of that step are meant to be compared.
