Book Description
Translators imputed words in the King James Bible and italics them because some have assumed that those words were placed for importance.In fact, the words in italics in the King James Bible are words that were added by the translators to help the reader. They felt it was necessary when translating from one language to another because a word in one language may not have a comparison word in English and natural expressions often do not efficiently flow smoothly from one language to another. Hence, the words in italics are words which do not have any equality in the Hebrew, Aramaic, or Greek text. By adding these words, the translators' goal was to make the meaning of the sentence clearer and produce a more readable translation that reads smoothly, yet was faithful to the original. However, to make sure that the reader understood that these words were not in the manuscripts, they set them in italics.Clearly, the words in italics were not miraculously given to the translators by God as additional inspiration the same way He did as recorded in 2 Peter 1:21, "holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost." Neither are the italics there to add emphasis. The words in italics in the King James Bible are words that were added by the translators to help the reader better understand the intent of the passage translated from the original languages.The same as for me (Michael Johnson, Sr.), I added all my precepts and word appellations using italics. To give the reader notice, they are not part of scripture. They were added for clarity only, and give the reader a better understanding of what the passage is saying and what the words mean at the time the word was being in the Bible. Word appellations are used to give the reader knowledge of geographical locations (as of a region, village, or vineyard), or person(s) name meaning, and location, city, place, and wilderness locations. Appellations are also used to identify the characteristics and acts by appellations.

Why Catholic Bibles Are Bigger
Author: Gary Michuta
Publisher: Catholic Answers Press
ISBN: 9781683570516
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 383
Book Description
Some differences between Catholicism and Protestantism can be tricky to grasp, but one of them just requires the ability to count: Catholic bibles have seventy-three books, whereas Protestant bibles have sixty-sis - plus an appendix with the strange title Apocrypha. What's the story here? Protestants claim that the medieval Catholic Church added six extra books that had never been considered part of the Old Testament, either by Jews or early Christians. Catholics say that the Protestant Reformers removed those books, long considered part of Sacred Scripture, because they didn't like what they contained. In Why Catholic Bibles Are Bigger, Gary Michuta presents a revised and expanded version of his authoritative work on this key issue. Combing the historical record from pre-Christian times to the Patristic era to the Reformation and its aftermath, he traces the canon controversy through the writings and actions of its major players.

God's Secretaries
Author: Adam Nicolson
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 0061804029
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 326
Book Description
NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK “This scrupulously elegant account of the creation of what four centuries of history has confirmed is the finest English-language work of all time, is entirely true to its subject: Adam Nicolson’s lapidary prose is masterly, his measured account both as readable as the curious demand and as dignified as the story deserves.” — Simon Winchester, author of Krakatoa In God's Secretaries, Adam Nicolson gives a fascinating and dramatic account of the era of the King James Bible and its translation, immersing us in an age whose greatest monument is not a painting or a building but a book. A network of complex currents flowed across Jacobean England. This was the England of Shakespeare, Jonson, and Bacon; the era of the Gunpowder Plot and the worst outbreak of the plague. Jacobean England was both more godly and less godly than the country had ever been, and the entire culture was drawn taut between these polarities. This was the world that created the King James Bible. It is the greatest work of English prose ever written, and it is no coincidence that the translation was made at the moment "Englishness," specifically the English language itself, had come into its first passionate maturity. The English of Jacobean England has a more encompassing idea of its own scope than any form of the language before or since. It drips with potency and sensitivity. The age, with all its conflicts, explains the book. This P.S. edition features an extra 16 pages of insights into the book, including author interviews, recommended reading, and more.
