KJVO funnies...

If you want to have some fun, ask a KJzv only if a native Greek speaker has to learn English to read the real Bible.
It can be hilarious on multiple levels.

There have already been KJV Bibles translated into Hebrew and dispersed in Israel. They are often received with joy as they see Christ in the ones presenting them.
My point is the person in question would be able to read the Hebrew and Greek Texts.

Actually, both modern Hebrew and Greek are very different from Biblical Hebrew and Greek, at least they are according to the biblical Greek and Biblical Hebrew professors I had in seminary.

Imagine finding a scroll with first century English. Just reading the original KJV is a chore and that’s 1611?.

Additionally, I think the KJVO folks claim this Bible is specifically given by God to English speaking people. I suppose a person learn English to get God’s word.

peace to you

They don't want to admit there were other ENGLISH translations before the KJV that the translators used and relied on for the KJV itself. Even the translators admit this usage.

I have a friend who speaks modern day Hebrew. He can read the biblical text, but much of it is garbled to him. However, it made learning Biblical Hebrew extremely easy for him.

I personally think it is funny as all get out to think of a KJVO advocate going to Greece and demanding them to use a translation of the NT from the AV1611.

All the KJV-only people I've met believe the WLC and the Textus Receptus were divinely inspired and preserved, but I've yet to meet anyone who thought the actual English translation was divinely inspired. I've heard of people like Ruckman with that…interesting belief, but I doubt most people will ever meet someone who believes that in person.

I've met several. It's not hard to come across one of these misled souls.
