[OLD REGGIE]

The KJV is derived from Catholic sources -- there are NO other sources as the Church was one until the reformation -- the name 'Roman Catholic' only came about as a result of the Reformation. Where then, does the KJV come from???

The Latin Vulgate was derived from sources which existed before there was a RCC. The Douay Rheims was translated from the Latin.

Like the earlier English translations like Tyndale and Geneva, the King James Version was translated from Greek and Hebrew texts, bypassing the Latin Vulgate . The King James Version Old Testament is based on the Masoretic Text while the New Testament is based on the Textus Receptus as published by Erasmus . The King James Version is a fairly literal translation of these base sources; words implied but not actually in the original source are specially marked (either by being inside square brackets, as shown above, or as italic text).
