Synopsis

In 1604, the king of England, James I, authorized a new English translation of the Bible. A group of fifty-four divines began work on the new Bible, which they completed in 1611. It is known as the Authorized or King James Version. From 1611 to the latter part of the 20th century, the King James Version of the Bible was the standard English translation. It is been called "a literary masterpiece" for its literary beauty, rhythm, countenance, and memorable phrasing. It popularized hundreds of phrases and idioms, such as "a thorn in the flesh," "the powers that be," and "the signs of the times." Today, many still prefer it over other translations. Some select it simply because used to it or they like it. Others favor it because it is based on the Textus Receptus Greek text, which they consider to be the most accurate or providentially preserved Greek text. Those referred to as the KJV-Only insist that it is inspired, perfect, in the sense that it has no errors, and should be the only translation that is used. In KJV-Only Controversy, after explaining the five views taken toward the King James Version of the Bible, G. Michael Cocoris analyzes three issues. Is the KJV inspired? Is the KJV perfect in the sense that it has no errors? Should it be the only translation that is used? What is of particular interest in this book is that those three questions are addressed from the perspective of the translators of the 1611 King James Version. Those interested in the King James Version of the Bible will find this book informative, especially concerning what the translators of the 1611 King James Version said about it.
