BIBLE VERSIONS COMPARED

I.

COMPARING BIBLE VERSIONS. A. When Comparing different Bible Versions, One Finds that there Are clear Differences between the King James Authorized Version (KJAV) and the other Versions. B. These Differences Show that Versions other than the KJAV Are Translated from different Sources of Manuscripts. Therefore, these other Versions Are not a Revision or Update of the KJAV, as Is often Claimed, but Are indeed different Bibles. C. In some Versions, whole Verses Are Omitted (left out), Footnoted, Bracketed, Placed in Parentheses, Changed, Mangled, or Placed in Italics. D. In other Versions, some Verses only Have Portions that Are Omitted, Footnoted, Bracketed, Placed in Parentheses, Changed, Mangled, Placed in Italics, or Added to. E. The following sixteen (16) Versions Were those Used for this Comparison: The Amplified Bible (AB), the Contemporary English Version (CEV), the English Standard Version (ESV)the King James Authorized Version (KJAV), the Living Bible (LB), the New American Standard Version (NAS), the New Century Version (NCV), the New English Bible (NEB), the New International Version (NIV), the New King James Version (NKJ), the New Living Translation (NLT), Phillips Modern English Translation (PME), the New Revised Standard Version (NRS), Todays English Version (TEV), The Message (TM).
