This New Testament was the first printed for the American and Foreign Bible Society in Calcutta, reproduced from a fourth edition of the same published by the British and Foreign Bible Society in London by R. Watts in 1837. A note to the verso of the title reads 'in this edition there has been made by the editors, a slight alteration in a few of the theological terms', indicating that this American edition can be considered a standalone text. Furthermore, it may be worth noting that the first British edition was also printed in Calcutta, in 1816, by P. Pereira (for more information on the editions of the New Testament in Farsi see Darlow & Moule 7340).

First A.F.B.S. edition, 8vo; separate English and Farsi title-pages, text entirely type-set in Farsi, a few scattered spots, some darkening and age-toning to preliminary and penultimate leaves, ink inscription to upper pastedown dated 1844, contemporary publisher's cloth over pasteboards, remains of paper label to the spine, extremities and spine ends rubbed, hinges a little weak with cloth splitting at ends.
