Here is the original KJV Bible, notice that in 1611 all the books were in it:

Yes, they were there in the original KJV, but were in a separate section labeled "apocrypha" (as they are on this website). The KJV translators were imitating the way Luther did it in his German translation of 1534. Luther took the books out of the "Scriptures," left the pages unnumbered, and put them in the back in a separate section. He wrote a preface for them declaring that they were not Scripture. He did the same for Hebrews, James, Jude and Revelation, declaring that they, too, were not Scripture. Thereafter, if Luther's cuts to the OT were included in Protestant Bibles, they were put in the back and labeled "apocrypha," or else they were omitted entirely. Luther's followers restored the four books to the NT so Protestants have all 27 NT books. But they have only 39 of the original 46 OT books.

Peace be to all in this place called phatmass.

[quote name='Archangel Raphael' date='May 27 2004, 04:30 AM'] King James Version is the best, period. Closest you'll get to actual translation ;) Yea so you just get over the thous, thees, thys, and thines, and you'll be fine. I'll trade creature comforts for more acurate wording any day. [/quote]

The KJV is the best? Almost all of it was a direct copy from the Douay-Rhiems..lol
Not to mention the KJV CONDONED Adultery in the 1611 Edition..lol

Heres just a few stuff ups by Protestant 'Scholars':

Btw it cant be the closest, since it used the LV! and not the Codex's as they claim.

I have a KJV from church
a Rainbow bible
A Readers Digest Bible (no verses or numbers-pretty cool.) its old.
I have some other Bibles and Catholic New Testaments (real small for the purse)

BUT




Gosh, I am so happy I have a vintage
1943 Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible.

Its got so much in it.
And when it comes to quoting Machabees or Ecclesiasticus, it stumps most people because alot dont realize thier bible doesnt have it(outside Catholicism that is)


Peace.

*funny. I had asked a while back about updating my bible. Now I'm glad I didnt. This was a gift from a friend who is Catholic, she owned an antique shop and had this bible there, until I came along. (he,he)

I like the king james and the DRV. I'm not sure how accurate the KJV is, but it is a beautiful translation, and is useful for apologetics. (Reading the KJV is kind of like going behind enemy lines).

Did you know that the DRV was published first, and the translators of the KJV borrowed heavily from it?

Douay-Rhiems and the Ignatius are the best IMO. I own the Douay-Rhiems and my parent's own an Ignatius. Compared to the other translations I've read (NAB, NRSV, KJV, etc.) they're most accurate, and complete.

One way to tell if the translation is good is to go to the first line of Psalm 1: "Happy is the man..." If it doesn't say "man" then run away, run away!

Why yes, CW. I did know that. But thanks for the history lesson.

"what that does mean?"



Peace all.

I have a DR a, an Nab, and TEV. I can still use the KJV and THe NKJV. I would prefer a DR, however, I have not found a text yet that suits my particular interest. I should like to learn latin and then I would just read it.
