One of the books on a shelf in her apartment was a book described as “the special edition of the Bible with all the sex scenes left in”.

In [[Universe (Parallax)|another universe]], a leather-bound “[[King Charles] Version]]” of the Bible with “only six gospels, omitting [[Bartholomew]]” was one of the items accumulated in the closet of [[Jenny Everywhere#Kim's friend|Jenny]]'s apartment in [[Universe (Parallax)|one universe]]. When she and [[Kim#Jenny's roommate|Kim]] went through the closet to sort its contents, they found it again, with Kim noting that they'd been looking for it and shelving it where it belonged in the living room.

In the real world, the Bible in its conventionally-canonical form only includes four gospels, and the {{w|Gospel of Bartholomew|Gospel of Bartholomew}} is a lost and conventionally-apocryphal text, rather than something whose omission from a Bible would be noteworthy. The English Bible named after a King is, of course, the {{w|King James Version|King James Version}}. Notably, although many of the items within the closet in ''[[Cleaning Day (short story)|Cleaning Day]]'' were obviously brought back from interdimensional jaunts, Kim's dialogue suggests that this is a normal Bible for [[Universe (Parallax)|their world]], suggesting that aside from its many supernatural elements, the default universe of [[Scott Sanford's Jenny Everywhere stories]] is also a minor alternate history relative to our world. | |||
