>> “Tyndale’s translation was superior to the KJV, in that his goal was accuracy, while the KJV’s goal was to support the Anglican Church.” <<


I guess it just boils down to a matter of opinion, i avoided the kjv for a long time but it seemed that the other versions that we had at hand then contradicted them selves in some areas and i found that the kjv made much more sense in those areas than the others, so i trust it.

The KJV remains the most accurate, and understandable of the widely used translations.

For the OT, it will never be bested, but for the NT, there are some lesser known translations that are decidedly superior.
