| Holy
Bible - King James Version
of 1611 - The Old Testament
The King
James Version of the Holy
Bible is one of the most
important Bible translations
ever made in the English
language. Although its
language is now rather
archaic, it was rather
controversial in 1611
because it was a translation
into the English spoken by
the common people at the
time, so that all could read
and clearly understand what
God was saying to us.
The translators' letter to
the reader explains
their motivation and
methods. |
