Most present-day editions incorporate conservative modernisations of spelling and punctuation introduced over a century and a half by subsequent editors and printers: the text that is commonly available is that of the 1769 revision, not that of 1611. The most widely accepted rendering of the Scriptures for four hundred years, the 1611 Bible has become a classic of the English language, and countless of its original phrases have passed into standard idiomatic English. The Authorised Version of the Bible, commonly known as the King James Bible, was first published in 1611. Kohlenberger III FEATURES - Original preface and translators' notes - Alfred Pollard's classic essay on pre-1611 English translations and the history of the Authorized Version - New essay on the enduring impact of the KJV - Handsome page design with decorative initials - Clear type is convenient to read and reference - Does not include the Apocrypha 'A valuable and essential addition to every Bible library.' -John R.
