The New Testament of the King James Bible

King James commissioned this new translation of the Bible in 1611 to settle the polemical and political controversies that had been spawned by previous versions. It was translated from the Textus Receptus series of Greek texts. A work of profound beauty, grandeur, and historical significance, the King James Bible is the primary faith document for many Christians today. It has influenced generations of literary artists and other thinkers around the world.
