The Bible (or Bibles) a president-elect chooses to use during the inauguration ceremony can hold a great deal of symbolism, serving as a reflection of that person's values and passions.

On Tuesday, the Presidential Inaugural Committee revealed that Donald Trump will be sworn in using a Bible from his childhood, as well as the so-called Lincoln Bible.

Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts will administer the oath of office.

“In his first inaugural address, President Lincoln appealed to the ‘better angels of our nature,’” Presidential Inaugural Committee Chairman Tom Barrack said in a statement. “As he takes the same oath of office 156 years later, President-elect Trump is humbled to place his hand on Bibles that hold special meaning both to his family and to our country.”

The Lincoln Bible has been used at three previous inaugural ceremonies: those in 1861, for Abraham Lincoln; 2009, for Barack Obama; and 2013, when Obama was sworn in for his second term.

Trump's childhood Bible was a graduation present from his mother after Trump finished Sunday Church Primary School at First Presbyterian Church in Jamaica, New York, according to the inaugural committee. He received it on Children’s Day 1955, just shy of his 9th birthday. His name is printed on the front cover.

Obama also opted to be sworn in on two Bibles in 2009 and 2013: one was the Lincoln Bible, and the other belonged to Martin Luther King, Jr.

Vice President-elect Mike Pence, meanwhile, will be sworn in Friday by Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, using a Bible that belonged to Ronald Reagan.

According to the inaugural committee, Thomas will be the first African-American to administer the oath of office to either the president or the vice president.
