	King James Version of the Bible
		Frontispiece to the first edition of the King James BibleThe King James Version or Authorised Version of the Holy Bible was translated into English for the benefit of the Church of England at the behest of King James I of England.
		The motivation behind the KJV translation was in large part due to the Protestant belief that the Bible was the sole source of doctrine (see sola scriptura) and as such should be translated into the local venacular.
		At the Hampton Court conference, King James proposed that a new translation be commissioned to settle the controversies, and hopefully, to replace the Geneva Bible and its offensive notes in the popular esteem.

	The King James Version
		The King James Bible, first published in 1611, has been a means of instructing many as to the salvation of their souls and as such a power for good it should be held in honor.
		The King James translators wrongfully wrote "the root." Pride (as in the case of Satan) is also a root of all evil.
		The KJV translators here subject to criticism, were learned men, and God used them greatly, but those Christians who take offense at any deviation from the way they translated the inspired original should have it demonstrated to them that there was error both in their learning and in their sense of justice.

	The Debate Over the King James Version
		Defenders of the primacy of the KJV were very vocal in their opposition to the new Greek text and the new English versions which followed its publication.
		In the KJV the two versions are almost identical, while in the NIV the prayer in Luke 11 is significantly shorter than that in Matthew 6.
		King James supporters say that the few manuscripts to which Westcott and Hort gave preference cannot override the witness of the vast majority of manuscripts in existence which are of the Byzantine tradition.

	King James Version (1611)
		King James gave the translators instructions, which were designed to discourage polemical notes, and to guarantee that the new version would conform to the ecclesiology of the Church of England.
		King James's instructions made it clear that he wanted the resulting translation to contain a minimum of controversial notes and apparati, and that he wanted the episcopal structure of the Established Church, and traditional beliefs about an ordained clergy to be reflected in the new translation (emphasis mine, BBK).
		James 1:21 is one of my personal favorites: "Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls" (KJV).

	New King James Version
		The New King James Version was conceived by Arthur Farstad, a conservative Baptist and a former editor at Thomas Nelson Publishers.
		For the New King James Version the text used was the 1967/1977 Stuttgart edition of the Biblia Hebraica, with frequent comparisons being made with the Bomberg edition of 1524-25.
		In light of these facts, and also because the New King James Version is the fifth revision of a historic document translated from specific Greek texts, the editors decided to retain the traditional text in the body of the New Testament and to indicate major Critical and Majority Text variant readings in the footnotes.

	King James Version Bible Translation Errors - Part 1
		You have probably heard the joke about the bigoted Protestant fundamentalist who said, "If the King James Version was good enough for the apostles, it is good enough for me!" People sometimes forget that the KJV was published in 1611 A.D. For centuries prior to 1611, Latin was the only scholarly language in Europe.
		Revelation 20:4-5 in the KJV is a little confusing until you realize that the sentence "This is the first resurrection." in verse five refers back to "they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years" in verse four.
		The KJV states, "And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise." The comma should not be after "thee", but "day." The believing malefactor would be with Christ in the paradise of the redeemed when he was resurrected far into the future.

	Brief History of the King James Bible by Dr. Laurence M. Vance
		James was at that time James VI of Scotland, and had been for thirty-seven years.
		In July of 1604, James wrote to Bishop Bancroft that he had "appointed certain learned men, to the number of four and fifty, for the translating of the Bible." These men were the best biblical scholars and linguists of their day.
		Subsequent versions of the Bible were likewise eclipsed, for the Authorized Version was the Bible until the advent of the Revised Version and ensuing modern translations.

	History of the King James Version
		On the second day of the conference, this gentleman, in the course of discussion, suggested to the king, that a new version was exceedingly desirable, because of the many errors in the version then in use.
		The fact concerning the style of this version is, that from the earliest effort at English version each succeeding translator improved upon his predecessors, taking his best points continually, so that in the end the chief excellence of each appeared.
		King James' version, therefore, combines the beautiful and felicitous expression of all who went before it.

	The King James Version
		The KJV does clearly teach that God's word is pure and that God promised to preserve his word.
		In the case of the New Testament, the distinctive Greek text tradition on which the KJV was based, known as the Byzantine text, does not appear to have existed in the early church.
		The Mormons have a strong commitment to the KJV because it was the Bible of the early LDS prophets, the Book of Mormon quotes (indeed, plagiarizes) whole chapters from the KJV, and Mormons have found it convenient to use the KJV in evangelizing especially in English-speaking countries.

		On February 10, 1604, the king ordained that the whole Bible be translated, as much as possible from the Hebrew and Greek, and that this version was the one to be used in all churches during services.
		The King James Version welds the best of the previous versions into a unified whole: the vigorous and crusty expressions of Tyndale, the musical phrases of Coverdale, the accurate and thoughtful translations of the Genevas with numerous new passages that reflect the repetitive nature of the Hebrew originals (e.g.
		Mention must also be made of the two great streams of King James Versions that took different states as their "models": the "He" Bibles and the "She" Bibles, from the rendering of the pronoun at Ruth iii 15 ("and he went into the city" or "and she went into the city").

		The version, however, undoubtedly derived its chief importance from the use made of it by Wyclif and the Lollards, and it is in this connection that it is chiefly remembered.
		In the meantime the Protestants were becoming dissatisfied with their own versions, and soon after his accession King James I appointed a commission of revision--the only practical outcome of the celebrated Hampton Court Conferences.
		For the Epistles and Gospels, it did not displace the Bishops' Version until the revision of the Liturgy in 1661; and for the Psalms, that version has been retained to the present day; for it was found that the people were so accustomed to singing it that any change was inadvisable, if not impossible.

	Why I Read the Authorized King James Version
		In the authorized King James Version God assembled, and moved with His Spirit, a team of some of the world's best scholars to translate His word into the world's most popular language, English.
		Well, unlike many of today's translators, the authorized KJV translators let us know which words they had to add in translating in order to give the full meaning of the original text (these are the words in italics in the KJV).
		Let's not accept the premise that the tried and true Authorized King James is somehow outdated and is to be replaced by dozens of new translations.
