Geneva Bible Marginal Notes in William Shakespeare’s Macbeth

Song Cho

Keywords: Geneva Bible, Marginal Notes, Biblical Allusions, Gospel, New Testament, Passion Narrative, Macbeth

Reference is made to the place where Jesus was crucified early in Macbeth: “Or memorize another Golgotha” (1.2.40). A closer look at the Gospels suggests that Shakespeare may have borrowed language from the 1599 Geneva Bible marginal notes, particularly from those commenting on the last days of Jesus. Consider the following quotes from Malcolm and Ross: “Let’s make us medicines of our great revenge / To cure this deadly grief” (4.3.215-216) and “’Gainst nature still” (2.4.27).
