"As an American English speaker, and raised during the 50's and 60's, the King James Version has always been, and will always remain, "The Bible" to me and my family."

I feel just as you do. There may be some slight difficulty in understanding the language of King James, but it is very slight. Unless one is pitifully uneducated, there should never be any difficulty in understanding the beautiful language of that day. If any scripture is read at my passing, my only wish is that it be presented in the language of King James.

Zondervan has published a 400th aniversary edition of the ORIGINAL KJV complete with OLD ENGLISH lettering, a beautiful bible. No wonder the Geneva Bible remained popular for quite a few years.

You can get one at Walmart for $5.00.
