by Unknown

"The King James Bible" is an English translation of the Christian Bible commissioned in 1604 and published in 1611 under King James VI and I. Containing 80 books spanning the Old Testament, Apocrypha, and New Testament, this influential translation was created for the Church of England to address concerns about existing versions. Noted for its majestic style, it has shaped English literature, Christian thought, and everyday language for over four centuries, becoming the most widely printed book in history.
