KJB is indeed a historical treasure. I know fairly well the history of James the 6th of Scotland who became James the 1st of England. He was a great scholar and great King.
I still haven’t studied the different versions of the KJB, how they arose, why it’s important to know the different versions. I invite any knowledgeable Freeper to fill in some details.
William Tyndale paid with his life as a martyr. There were countless martyrs who gave their lives to give us the Bible in our native tongue. The history of the Bible in English is a full of intrigue, murder, and the Godly martyrs who paid the highest price to bring the word of God to all.
