W. F. Moulton stated: "The Rhemish Testament was not even named in the instructions furnished to the translators, but it has left its mark on every page of their work" (History of the English Bible, p. 207). Diarmaid MacCulloch and Elizabeth Solopova asserted that in the KJV “it was possible to...

Nehemiah 6:9 is one of the places where the KJV translators added the name God where it is not found in the preserved Scriptures in the original languages. It is not added in the 1560 Geneva Bible at this verse.

The fact that Dr. James D. Price is not a TR-only advocate does not change the truth that the NKJV was based on the same multiple original-language texts of Scripture as the KJV is. The KJV translators were not all TR-only advocates. The KJV translators had been raised and taught from Jerome's...

Is this possibly the KJV translator to which you refer? In a sermon, KJV translator Lancelot Andrewes referred to "St Peter's Lucifer in cordibus [daystar in your hearts]" (Hewison, Selected Writings, p. 112). An edition of the Latin Vulgate printed with the 1538 Coverdale’s English...

Your belief in what you asserted does not make it true or scriptural. You can choose to believe assertions that are not true; thereby, deceiving you yourself.

The need for use of the same exact measures and standards in evaluating translation decisions is not a non-issue. The fact that the makers of the KJV give no English word or words for many original-language words of Scripture does have bearing on inconsistent accusations against the NKJV. The...

You are misinformed. The NKJV's NT is translated from an edition of the Greek Textus Receptus. I stated the truth when I pointed out that the KJV translators did not always give an English word or English words for all original-language words of Scripture. The KJV translators themselves...

This example would fall into the range of places where the KJV does not give an English word or English words for all original-language words of Scripture. It could possibly be a difference in translation similar to some of the translation decisions in the KJV.

John Calvin would have known the fact that the word lucifer was found in Jerome's Latin Vulgate 3 or 4 times, including one time where it was used in 2 Peter 1:19. In a sermon, KJV translator Lancelot Andrewes referred to "St Peter's Lucifer in cordibus [daystar in your hearts]" (Hewison...

Why should he comprehend and accept blindly something that you have not proven to be true and scriptural? Perhaps you assume your unproven claims by use of fallacies such as begging the question and special pleading. The Scriptures do not state nor teach that the word of God is bound to one...

I pointed out the truth that the KJV has more episcopal bias than the Bishops' Bible has, and one place that the KJV has more episcopal bias is at Acts 14:23. That is not contradicting myself.

The 1568 Bishops' Bible was the second official authorized version of the Church of England. Its translators were Church of England bishops. KJV-only author Doug Stauffer acknowledged that the ministers of the Church of England in 1600 “incorporated an unscriptural Episcopal form of church...

I did not claim that the NKJV is a KJB, but I accurately acknowledge the truth that the NKJV is a revision of the KJV.

You reveal your inconsistency. KJV-only advocates use different measures/standards in their evaluations of the NKJV than they use in their evaluations of the KJV. KJV-only advocates fail to apply the same exact measures/standards to the process of the making of the KJV that they...

For the Old Testament, the Hebrew Masoretic texts.

The KJV also has "it" at 1 John 1:2, and the pronoun "it" refers back to the noun "life", not directly back to a proper noun Jesus.

The use of "by election" at Acts 14:23 had nothing to do with what you may consider to be the Calvinist doctrine of election. Election at Acts 14:23 was indicating raising the hands or voting. The text of the Latin N. T. translation by Erasmus has “cum suffragns” at Acts 14:23. In the...

The Puritans were still part of the state Church of England. The Puritans wanted to purify it or remove some doctrines and practices that the Church of England had kept from its mother church--the Roman Catholic Church.

Baptists could use the Baptist Bible. In 1842, Baptists and other believers made a revision of the KJV. It had the title The Holy Bible; being the English Version of the Old and New Testaments, made by order of King James I, carefully revised and amended, by several Biblical scholars. In...

One place where the 1611 KJV indicates bias for Episcopal church government is in Acts 14:23 where either the KJV translators, Richard Bancroft, Thomas Bilson, or another prelate omitted the words "by election" found in Tyndale's New Testament, Coverdale's Bible, Matthew's Bible, Great Bible...
