= Very rare, no other copies traced in STCN. Poortman I, p.61-63; "De vertaling die alleen een gedeelte van het Oude Testament en de Apocriefe boeken bevat, is in verglijking met de vertaling van 1477 een grote stap terug naar de vroege middeleeuwen, naar de Rijmbijbel van Van Maerlant en de Historiebijbel van 1360. (...) Den Bibel (...) is eigenlijk geen bijbel, maar een naïef volksboek, geheel in de trant van de volksboeken van die tijd. Er is geen indeling in boeken en de bijbeltekst gaat verloren tussen allerlei vreemdsoortige verhalen." De Bruin, p.37: "Men zou het werk een onvolledige bijbelse geschiedenis kunnen noemen, ware het niet dat het eigenlijke verhaal doorweven was met een menigte uitbreidingen van vaak dubieuze aard."
