    Well, almost anything is possible, the thing is, the term "Bible Box" is a 19th century term so there that is.

    Yeah, no such thing as a dedicated bible box before 1800, although I suppose folks could have put bibles in boxes like anything else. Maybe the best term for this is just "box."

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    That sounds good. And I was glad to learn about the hinges!
