Where can you get a Gideon Bible?

I suggest that you contact the Gideons International association on http://www.gideons.org/Splash.aspx. Click on your region of the world from the list on the left and you will be redirected to your national Gideon centre. If you click on 'Contact Us' you will be able to order a Gideon Bible or Bibles. However, Gideons only tend to give Bibles free in bulk to recognised organisations (hotels, prisons, schools, medical waiting rooms etc) as individuals should be able to afford a single Bible for themselves. Gideons provide Bibles at their own expense or through fundraising, and so this request is perfectly reasonable. The Bible used by the Gideons is usually the King James Version KJV (or the New King James Version NKJV for those who would like a modern translation). Although the New International Version (NIV) was used on the Gideons UK regional Website when quoting Bible texts online (e.g. see http://www.gideons.org.UK/BibleHelps/index.asp), it is not used by the Gideons in the printing of Bibles. If you cannot get a Gideon Bible as an individual, these versions of the Bible can be read for free on www.Biblegateway.com and parts downloaded also for free using 'cut and paste'. The KJV, NKJV and NIV can also be purchased relatively cheaply from all booksellers and from online book stores. Should you specifically want some of the Gideon's own introductions or theme indices from their Bibles, you can obtain these from their website.


Is the Gideon Bible a Protestant Bible?

Yes, Gideons International (who provide Gideon's Bibles) is an evangelical Protestant organization.A typical Gideon Bible or New Testament contains:a short preface;a pamphlet suggesting Bible verses that may be of assistance in various sorts of trouble;translations of John 3:16 into a variety of languages and scripts;the Bible text itself, without notes, references, or any other reference matter other than chapter and verse headings - this can either be the full Bible (typical of the copies placed in hotel rooms), or just the New Testament, Psalms, and Proverbs (typical of the copies handed out as gifts to individuals);a short description of Biblical salvation, with Biblical quotations, and a place for the reader to sign and date his confession of Jesus (this is especially common in the shorter editions the New Testament and Psalms).The Gideons principally use the King James Version for their Bibles. The Gideons also distribute New King James Bibles and Testaments, which they refer to as "Modern English Version" (MEV) Bibles and Testaments. According to the Gideon Guidebook, these MEV Scriptures are used as a supplement to the KJV Bibles. Typically, MEV Bibles are allowed to be distributed only when either the Bible purchaser, Hotel, or the recipient specifies a desire for a modern Bible.HOWEVER, NOTE : -The text of the Bible is basically the same no matter which Christian denomination one belongs to - a catholic Bible does not contains the same words.

When did it become legal to publish Bibles in Turkey?

As far as I am aware, publishing Bibles in Turkey was never illegal. However, it was not until Ataturk founded the Turkish Republic that Bibles could freely be bought by and sold to Muslims. Prior to this, selling a Bible to a Muslim in the Ottoman Empire could be prosecuted as attempted proselytization. (Whether or not it actually would be depended with the times.)
