A Thumb Bible is a paraphrased or abridged version of the Bible , printed in miniature and generally meant for children. They are also decorated with pictures. The first Thumb Bibles were published in the early seventeenth century, with several hundred different editions being printed in the subsequent three centuries. History The first known Thumb Bible was written by John Weever in verse form. Entitled An Agnus Dei , it appeared in London in 1601. It measured 3.3 by 2.7 cm 1.3 by 1.1 in and contained 128 pages of six lines. In 1614, John Taylor published his Verbum Sempiternum , which also summarised the Bible in verse form. These were designed to provide instruction to children who were not old enough to read the Bible itself. The first Thumb Bible in prose was published in London in 1727, under the title Biblia or a Practical Summary of ye Old & New Testaments . This contained 300 pages and measured 3.6 by 2.4 cm 1.4 by 0.9 in . The term Thumb Bible was first coined by Longman and Co. of London in the mid eighteenth century, when they used it on the title page of an edition in 1849, probably as a reference to the midget Tom Thumb General Tom Thumb Charles Stratton who had visited London with P. T. Barnum in 1844. Thumb Bibles continued to be printed in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Approximately 300 different editions survive. As well as being published in English language English , versions were printed in French language French , German language German and Dutch language Dutch .

It also secures the weapon in the holster or sheath when its owner is engaged in vigorous activities such as parachuting, abseiling rappelling , or fighting. The thumb break is made of the same material as the holster or sheath i.e., leather or nylon , and may either be permanently attached or removable. The thumb break is held in place by a simple snap mechanism, usually metal, which may be disengaged by pushing the thumb upward against it. Pros and cons The metal snap can scratch the finish of the weapon, or even snag it, which could interfere with the user s ability to draw the weapon cleanly and safely. Some self defence experts have advised removing thumb breaks, except for people employed in enforcement who are at greater risk of encountering someone who may try to grab their weapon . If a thumb break is designed to be non removable, it may be snipped off with a pair of shears. Modern form fitting holsters and sheaths have greatly reduced the necessity of a thumb break retaining device. References reflist Category Holsters Weapon stub ... more details

Joske s Thumb is a precipitous volcanic plug that rises on the horizon to the west of Suva , Fiji . Sir Edmund Hillary was defeated in his first attempts to climb the peak. The peak gets its name from Mr Adolph Brewster Brewster , who had later changed his name to Joske s. The Brewster family were noted for their pioneering work in establishing the sugar industry, including the importation of machinery for Fiji s first sugar mill. Joske s Thumb takes its name from Paul Joske, one of the pioneers who, with Brewer, established Suva s first sugar mill. This ultimately failed, owing to the poor crop from shallow soil. Later, Paul Joske devoted much of his time to laying out and establishing the new capital. His son was Adolf Brewster Joske, who later changed his name to Adolf Brewster Brewster.
