***How so?***

Calvin and Beza's notes.

Isn't it interesting that all those who translated the KJV used the geneva Bible and were believers in sprinkling, not immersion.( I can't think of any anabaptists on the translating committie but I might be wrong.)

The KJV is the bible of Alex Campbell used.

Would you say that he used a bible translated by what you would term UNSAVED men?

So, without their notes, what does the Bible teach about salvation with regards to baptism?

That would explain the fact that they transliterated the Greek word baptizo to baptism, instead of translating it properly as immersion.
