Swordsman's Notes
Beautiful reproduction of the original King James Version
"Students of the many Bible translations on the market be aware: this is a must have.

(By the way, I never knew that it had an almanac in it!)

The old English spelling of the words takes some getting used to, and it does not have nearly the number of cross references that today's KJV Bibles have.

That aside, it is a beautifully printed reproduction of the Bible. It has not only been ranked with Shakespeare's works as the greatest masterpiece of literature in the English language, but also has been the standard version of the Bible most Christians have read for four hundred years.

In a way, it is sad to see a lot people give up reading the KJV because of the archaic language many claim is a stumbling block to reading the Scriptures. But, as translations of the Bible come on the market (nowadays, there seems to be a new one every year or two), the King James Version is still the standard.

I have never given up on a word or phrase that is confusing or hard to understand. It just makes me dig deeper to find the meaning of the passage. Besides, many of the Bible reference books on the market (Strongs Concordance, Vine's Dictionary of New Testament Words, etc.) are published to help those who are willing understand the KJV better. There is, in my opinion, no reason to put the KJV down.
