bloodbought,

Have you even seen a 1611 KJV?

Most KJV-onlysist have ever seen or read the 1611. There have been hundreds of revisions and changes all done by men.

Do you believe that the 1611 KJV is the only version of God's Word in English? Or which revision is God's Word?

Hate to break it up, but I like my New King James!

[endure4salvation]

Hate to break it up, but I like my New King James!

Yup, I like it too!

My favorite is becoming the ESV. I have heard great things about it and can say that I agree with them. A literal, but readable translation in current language. Good enough for me!

I like the NKJV because it doesn't take anything away from the KJV. I feel it's the most accurate and easiest to read for teenagers and adults alike.

My (well I gave it to Gary for Christmas in 1993) Willyam Tindale Newe Testament of 1534 was a reproduction from 1938. It was for the British people to acknowledge their indebtness to Willyam Tindale on the 400th anniversary of his martyrdom.

This Bible is only the New Testament because the entire Bible would be too thick. This is a reproduction by means of tracing and lithography, of the only known [complete] copy of the first edition of Tyndale's New Testament. There were only 500 copies of this Bible reproduced.

I know where 7 of these Bibles are and doubt any of these people would sell theirs: I gave these 7 Bibles for Christmas one year. I also have an unbound edition which is mine. To get one of these Bibles today would be almost impossible.

As for the New William Tyndale Bible in our regular English I suppose you could order one from a book store. I called around trying to get a copy of Tyndale's Old Testament and was told there had not been enough demand to reproduce the Old Testament.

I don't remember what I paid these Bibles and the unbound edition. It seems like I paid several thousand dollars and then had to get them rebound. The rebinding is pretty nice. The pictures in the original edition is not in this edition.

I like this edition because if I can't read it I have to go to one of our Bibles to understand. I have learned a lot from this Bible.

from the clips i have seen from the actual 1611 KJV, they were pretty rough to read, the words ( some ) had to be really looked at to read them..... the clips from the Tindale version were actually a bit easier to read....

as far as i know, Tindale never got a chance to finish the old test.... died prior to completion.....

( Shadow, diss is another way of saying cutting down, )
