KJV and the Textus Receptus. 1.
Introductory remarks: Recognizing the contribution of the King James Version The King James Version [ KJV ] has made and continues to make a great contribution in its nearly four hundred years of enabling the Word of God to be known to humanity. Until the general acceptance of the Revised Standard Version [ RSV ], after its introduction in 1952, the KJV had remained almost * the only Bible version standard for English-speaking Protestant Christianity for nearly 350 years. Though the facts presented in this document may at times seem unflattering to the King James Version of the Bible, I myself continue to have much appreciation for the KJV and for the many Bible study aids that are based upon the KJV . In my own study of the Bible throughout each week, I still refer to the KJV along with other English language versions of the Bible, Hebrew and Greek texts, biblical commentaries, and other resources.
