Appendix C

The Editions Compared

The note on Acts 17:26, printing by printing, and the pages behind each line

These tables set out what Chapter 22 tells as a story. The note that the Dake Bible printed for Acts 17:26 passed through four states in the pages photographed so far. It began as thirty reasons for segregation of the races. In 1990 new words were pasted over the old ones. In 1992 it was reset and rewritten. In the newer typeset edition it became “Separation in Scripture,” which restates about twenty of the old reasons. The Bible never told its readers about any of these changes.

Every line below rests on a page I have seen, and each citation names the printing and page. Where a printing has not yet been photographed, the table says so and claims nothing about it. The racial terms of the old note appear only inside quotation marks, exactly as printed. The full original note is transcribed in Appendix B, and Chapter 22 shows photographs of each stage.1

The printings in hand

I own about a dozen printings of the Dake Bible. The table lists each one, with the scans in my research files, and says which pages of each have been photographed.

The cross-reference web

The original note did not stand alone. Notes in several books of the Old Testament pointed to it, and the index gathered them under one headword. This table follows each pointer from the original wording into the newer typeset edition.

Most of the pointers were changed the same way: one word, and a new destination. The item on the purposes of the Second Advent was not changed at all, so the newer edition still prints “segregate the different races” under Acts 17:26 in its notes on 2 Thessalonians.

The changes side by side

The pointer at Acts 17:26

In the original wording the note beside the verse reads this way.

See 30 reasons for segregation of races, p. 159 Dake’s Annotated Reference Bible, 1979 Large Note Edition, N.T. p. 144, note c (Acts 17:26)24

In the newer typeset edition the same lettered note reads this way.

See Separation in Scripture, p. 275. Dake’s Annotated Reference Bible, newer typeset edition, N.T. p. 251, note c (Acts 17:26)

The heading

The original heading, at the top of the left column of N.T. p. 159, is this.

30 reasons for segregation of races: (Acts 17:26) Dake’s Annotated Reference Bible, original wording, N.T. p. 159; transcribed in full in Appendix B

The 1990 and 1992 printings both head the list “30 reasons nations separated: (Acts 17:26).” The newer typeset edition heads its note “Separation in Scripture (17:26)” and moves it to N.T. p. 275, whose running head reads “THE ACTS NOTES CONTINUED (158-159) 275.” The page number in parentheses is the old page, so the running head itself shows that this page holds what used to stand on pages 158 and 159.25

1990: the words pasted over

Every word the 1990 printing changed is in this table. Everything else on the page reads as in the original.

ReasonOriginal wording1990 printing

24Segregation was so strong in the O. T.…Separation was so strong in the O. T.…
30…of a like race are to be segregated…of a like race are to be separated

The 1990 printing left these unchanged: “Miscegenation” at reasons 4, 15 and 25; reason 2, “Kind means type and color or He would have kept them all alike to begin with”; reason 19, “Equal rights in the gospel gives no right to break this eternal law”; and reason 23, “Even in heaven certain groups will not be allowed to worship together.”26

1992: the note rewritten

The 1992 printing set the note in new type and rewrote many of its sentences. These are the reasons that changed most.

ReasonOriginal wording1992 printing
1Any violation of God's original purpose manifests insubordination to HimAny violation of God’s original purpose is not consistent with His will
2Kind means type and color or He would have kept them all alike to begin withKind means type and color or all things would be alike. God wants variety in his creation of trees, plants, fish, animals, and mankind. God loves all nations and calls “good” the races he created
3God originally determined the bounds of the habitations of nations (17:26; Gen. 10:5, 32; 11:8; Dt. 32:8)The same, followed by: Nations were one until worship of a strange god forced God to choose the nation of Israel as His inheritance, to separate nations, and to set bounds
4Miscegenation means the mixture of races, especially the black and white races, or those of outstanding type or colorMiscegenation means the mixing of races, especially those of widely different type or color
8Esau disobeying this law brought the final break between him and his father after lifelong companionship with himEsau disobeying this law brought grief to his father and mother after lifelong companionship
15Miscegenation caused Israel to be cursedIntermarriage caused a curse on Israel
19Jews recognized as a separate people in all ages because of God's choice and command (Mt. 10:6; Jn. 1:11). Equal rights in the gospel gives no right to break this eternal lawJews are recognized as a separate people in all ages because of God’s choice (Mt. 10:6; Jn. 1:11)
21All nations will remain segregated from one another in their own parts of the earth foreverAll nations will remain separated on earth forever
23Even in heaven certain groups will not be allowed to worship together (Rev. 7:7-17; 14:1-5; 15:2-5)In heaven a specific group will have a new song that no man can learn but the 144,000 (Rev. 14:1-5)
24Segregation was so strong in the O. T. that an ox and an ass could not be worked together (Dt. 22:10)An ox and an ass could not be worked together (Dt. 22:10)
25Miscegenation caused disunity among God's people (Num. 12)Intermarriage caused disunity among God’s people (Num. 12)
30Christians and certain other people of a like race are to be segregatedChristians and certain people of the same race are to be separate

Reasons 5–7, 11, 16 and 26–29 read much as in the original, apart from “of the Canaanites” in reason 5 and “separation” in reason 11.27

The newer note and the old reasons

“Separation in Scripture” opens with a paragraph of its own.

This verse says God made “all nations of men” from “one blood”; it also speaks of “the bounds of their habitation.” In spite of a common ancestry, from Adam first and later Noah, it was God’s will for man to scatter over the earth, to “be fruitful, and multiply” (Gen. 1:28; 8:17; 9:1). Man’s failure to obey caused God to confuse his language (Gen. 11:1-9) and to physically separate the nations by dividing the earth into continents (Gen. 10:25). Both physically and spiritually, separation has been a consistent theme for God’s people. Dake’s Annotated Reference Bible, newer typeset edition, N.T. p. 275, “Separation in Scripture (17:26)”28

Its first section, “Separation for Messiah’s line,” takes up the angels of Genesis 6, the flood and the giant races, the ground of the old reason 14. Its second section, “Separation in Israel,” and the two short sections after it restate the old reasons one by one. This table pairs them.

Old reasonNewer noteNewer wording
5Sec. 2, (1)Abraham forbad Eliezer to take a Canaanite wife for Isaac (Gen. 24:1-4). God was pleased and He directed whom to get (Gen. 24:7-67)

7Sec. 2, (3)Abraham sent the sons of his concubines and his second wife far away from Isaac so their descendants would not mix (Gen. 25:1-6)
8Sec. 2, (4)Esau’s disobedience deeply grieved his parents (Gen. 25:28; 26:34-35; 27:46; 28:8-9)
9Sec. 2, (5)Two branches of Isaac remain separate forever (Gen. 36; 46:8-26)
10Sec. 2, (6)Ishmael’s and Isaac’s descendants remain separate forever (Gen. 25:12-23; 1 Chr. 1:29)

12Sec. 2, (8)God forbad Israel to intermarry (Ex. 34:12-16; Dt. 7:3-6)
25Sec. 2, (9)Intermarriage caused disunity among God’s people (Num. 12)
13Sec. 2, (10)Enemies remained in the land as a penalty for this (Josh. 23:12-13)
15Sec. 2, (11)Intermarriage caused a curse on Israel (Judg. 3:6-7; Num. 25:1-8)
16Sec. 2, (12)This was Solomon’s sin (1 Ki. 11)
17Sec. 2, (13)It was a sin of Jews returning from Babylon (Ezra 9; 10; Neh. 13; see note c, Ezra 4:3)
18Sec. 2, 14)God told Israel to be separated (Lev. 20:24; Num. 23:9; 1 Ki. 8:53)
19Sec. 2, 15)Jews are recognized as a separate people in all ages because of God’s choice (Mt. 10:6; Jn. 1:11)
20Sec. 2, 16)Separation between Jews and all other nations is to remain in eternity (Isa. 2:2-4; Ez. 37; 47:13–48:35; Zech. 14:16-21; Mt. 19:28; Lk. 1:32-33; Rev. 7:1-8; 14:1-5)
22Sec. 2, 17)Certain people in Israel were not to worship with others (Dt. 23:13; Ezra 10:8; Neh. 9:2; 10:28; 13:3)
24Miscellaneous, (1)An ox and an ass could not be worked together (Dt. 22:10)
26Miscellaneous, (2)Stock was forbidden to be bred with other kinds (Lev. 19:19)
27Miscellaneous, (3)Sowing mixed seed in the same field was unlawful (Lev. 19:19)
28Miscellaneous, (4)Different seeds were forbidden to be planted in vineyards (Dt. 22:9)
29Miscellaneous, (5)Wearing garments of mixed fabrics forbidden (Dt. 22:11; Lev. 19:19)
30Christian separationChristians to be separate from certain people at times (Mt. 18:15-17; 1 Cor. 5:9-13; 6:15; 2 Cor. 6:14-18; 2 Th. 3:6, 14; 1 Tim. 6:5; 2 Tim. 3:5)

The newer note drops old reasons 1, 2, 4, 21 and 23, and the “Equal rights” sentence of reason 19. Those are the reasons that spoke most openly about race. They said that God wills the races to stay as He made them and that “Kind means type and color.” They defined the mixing of the races, kept the nations apart forever, and kept groups apart in heaven. Most of the rest are kept in new words. The 1992 wording is the bridge, since its reasons 13, 15, 17–20, 22, 25 and 30 reappear in the newer note almost word for word.29

The index entry

In the original printings the Cyclopedic Index has a headword “Segregation” with fifteen sub-entries, printed in full in Chapter 20. In the newer typeset edition the headword is one line.

Segregation. See Separation Dake’s Annotated Reference Bible, newer typeset edition, Concordance and Cyclopedic Index, p. 12430

The sub-entries survive under “Separation (26)” on the same page, with new page numbers. “Abraham’s command about, o 21-4” becomes “Abraham’s command about, o 32-3.” “Charge to keep s., g 26-4; r 33-1; b 33-4; k 100-1” becomes “Charge to keep s., g 39-3; r 49-3; b 49-3; k 159-3,” which moves the Exodus 33:16 note from O.T. p. 100 to newer p. 159. “12 reasons God segregated Israel, 108” becomes “12 reasons God separated Israel, 194.” “Fear of integration, j 20-4” becomes “Fear of integration, j 31-3,” with its wording kept. And the last line, “30 reasons for s., 159*,” becomes “S. in Scripture, 275*.”31

What the tables do not show

Only one printing in hand has a photographed copyright page, the 1979 Large Note Edition. The 1965 and 1990 pages come from my own copies, whose copyright pages are not yet photographed. The 1992 page and the 2009 pages are scans in my research files, and their years are the years those scans are filed under.

The tables show stages, not every printing. My copies show the changes beginning with the 1988 printing, but the 1988, 1991, 1997, 1998 and 2000s pages are not photographed yet, so I cannot say which of them carries which wording. There may be stages between those shown here.

Some rows of the cross-reference table are marked “Not checked.” On the newer side, I have not yet found the newer form of the Exodus 33:13 item or of the index lines on pp. 60 and 116, and the table claims nothing about them.

The publisher spoke about the change outside the Bible. In 2000 Charisma reported a letter of apology to Fred Price and the publisher’s claim of a 1997 edition rewritten to remove racial overtones. Chapter 22 gives the article’s words. Inside the Bible, on none of the pages listed here, is there a notice that the note was ever different.32

For the reader holding a different printing

If you own a Dake Bible, you can find out in a few minutes which stage it carries. Start with the copyright page and write down every date and printing line it gives. Then turn to Acts 17:26 and read note c beside the verse, and follow it to the page it names.

If it sends you to page 159 and the note there is headed “30 reasons for segregation of races,” you have the original wording. If the heading reads “30 reasons nations separated” and some words stand out in a lighter, typewriter-style face, you have the 1990 stage. If the same heading stands over a page set in clean new type, with “God loves all nations and calls ‘good’ the races he created” in reason 2, you have the 1992 stage. If the note sends you to “Separation in Scripture” on page 275, you have the newer typeset edition. If your copy shows something else, it is a witness these tables do not yet have.

Whichever you find, the verse itself says the same thing in every printing. Chapter 21 opens it, Chapter 22 weighs what the changes mean, and Appendix B gives the original note in full.

Notes

↑ 1. Finis Jennings Dake, Dake’s Annotated Reference Bible (Lawrenceville, GA: Dake Bible Sales), printings as given in each note. Dake’s numbered items usually end without a period, and they are quoted that way. Where a quotation in a table stops before the end of an item, it is marked with an ellipsis or quotes only the words compared.

↑ 2. Dake, Dake’s Annotated Reference Bible, 1965 printing, N.T. p. 159; running head “NOTES ON ACTS OF THE APOSTLES CONTINUED 159.” Photographs of my copy are plates 4 and 5 of Appendix B.

↑ 3. Dake, Dake’s Annotated Reference Bible, 1979 Large Note Edition, copyright page: “© Copyright 1963 by Finis Jennings Dake”; “New Testament portion (with Daniel, Psalms and Proverbs) © Copyright 1961”; “Large Note Edition / First Printing — August 1979.” Photographed in Chapter 20. The same volume’s N.T. p. 159 is plates 1–3 of Appendix B. The four spellings are “descendants” at reasons 4, 7 and 10, where the 1965 printing has “descendents,” and “Miscegenation” at reason 25, where it has “Miscegnation.” The volume’s contents page places Acts at N.T. p. 122 and Romans at N.T. p. 160.

↑ 4. Dake died on July 7, 1987 (Atlanta Journal, July 8, 1987, p. 61). No change was made to the note while he lived. That the changes begin with the 1988 printing rests on my own examination of my copies.

↑ 5. Dake, Dake’s Annotated Reference Bible, 1990 printing, N.T. p. 159; running head “NOTES ON ACTS OF THE APOSTLES CONTINUED” with the page number 159. Photographed in Chapter 22.

↑ 6. Dake, Dake’s Annotated Reference Bible, 1992 printing, N.T. p. 159. Photographed in Chapter 22.

↑ 7. “He’s Still Not Afraid to Confront,” Charisma, online, July 31, 2000, which reports that the 1963 version “has since been replaced by a 1997 edition rewritten, according to its authors, to remove any racial overtones.” Which stage the 1997 printing carries will be known when my copy is photographed.

↑ 8. Dake, Dake’s Annotated Reference Bible, newer typeset edition, N.T. pp. 275–276; running heads “THE ACTS NOTES CONTINUED (158-159) 275” and “276 (159) THE ACTS NOTES CONTINUED.” Scans of a 2009 printing; the complete text of the newer edition agrees.

↑ 9. The 1979 Large Note Edition prints its notes in larger type. Its N.T. p. 159 carries the original wording, and its index and Acts 17 page still send the reader to the thirty reasons.

↑ 10. Newer typeset edition, N.T. p. 251; running head “Paul goes to Corinth THE ACTS 17 251.” The quoted line is the whole note. The page carries the same verses and the same lettered notes, in the same order, as classic N.T. p. 144 (running head “144 THE ACTS 17 Paul at Athens Paul goes to Corinth”).

↑ 11. Original wording, N.T. p. 144, note h: “The Gr. word for “offspring” here is genos. See Offspring, p. 159.” Newer typeset edition, N.T. p. 251, note h: “The Gr. word for “offspring” here is genos. See Offspring, p. 276.” In the older setting both the race note and the “Offspring” note stood on p. 159; in the newer edition they stand on pp. 275 and 276.

↑ 12. The list reads “18 doctrines of God” in the original wording and “18 Doctrines of God” in the newer edition. Item 6 reads “Made all men of one kind (v 26)” in both.

↑ 13. 1979 Large Note Edition, O.T. p. 20, note j, which prints “p. 158 of N.T.”; newer typeset edition, O.T. p. 31, note j (running head “Machpelah bought for a buyingplace GENESIS 23, 24 31”). Both notes begin, “Abraham, Isaac and Jacob all had a horror of inter-marriage with Canaanites,” and give the same reason, the giant races and “pure Adamite stock.”

↑ 14. 1979 Large Note Edition, O.T. p. 21, note o, printed in full in Chapter 20; it ends “See Segregation in Index.” Newer typeset edition, O.T. p. 32, note o: “Here we have Abraham’s definite command regarding the separation of his descendants. Such has been and always will be the will of God for all distinct nations. See Separation in Index.”

↑ 15. 1979 Large Note Edition, O.T. p. 100, note k on Exodus 33:16; running head “100 EXODUS 34 The tables of the law renewed Sundry things to be observed.” Newer typeset edition, O.T. p. 159, note k; running head “God talks with Moses EXODUS 33 159.” Both notes are quoted in full in Chapter 22. The newer O.T. p. 159 has nothing to do with N.T. p. 159 of the older setting.

↑ 16. 1979 Large Note Edition, O.T. p. 107; running head “EXODUS 40 Moses approves of the work 107.” The item reads “6 If You want us to be segregated from all other people, then do this for us as proof of good faith,” in the list “7 requests for God’s grace (33:13).” It is a different note from note k on p. 100, in the same pagination.

↑ 17. 1979 Large Note Edition, O.T. p. 114; running head “114 NOTES ON EXODUS CONTINUED.” The item reads in full “10 Segregation laws (15 commands): (1) Segregation from all other people without exception (23:32-33; Dt. 7:1-6; 23:1-5). See 30 reasons for segregation of races, p. 159 of N.T.” Newer typeset edition, O.T. p. 179 (classic 114; running head “EXODUS NOTES CONTINUED (114) 179”): “10 Separation laws (15 commands): (1) Separation from all other people without exception (Ex. 23:32-33; Dt. 7:1-6; 23:1-5). See Separation in Scripture, p. 275 of N.T.” The words “Separation laws” are underlined.
