- This is a ministry of striving for eternity. This week, we're going to take a look at the
- 01:15
- King James Version of the Bible. Many people have the false understanding that the
- 01:21
- King James Version was the only English translation at its time.
- 01:26
- That's actually not true. You see, in the 14th century, John Wycliffe completed the very first of the
- 01:34
- English translations of the Scriptures. Only to be followed by the work of Coverdale in 1539, when he created what became known as the
- 01:44
- Great Bible. And followed by the Geneva Bible, one of the most historically significant translations of the
- 01:52
- Bible into English. It preceded the King James Version by 51 years and was the primary
- 01:57
- Bible of the 16th century Protestantism. It was used by William Shakespeare, Oliver Cromwell, John Knox, John Bunyan, the author of Pilgrim's Progress, and it was the one that was brought over on the
- 02:10
- Mayflower. This was the version of the Bible used by many of the
- 02:16
- English dissenters and the soldiers of Cromwell's in the time of the
- 02:22
- English Civil War. This was a widely used Bible and the Bible that was accepted at the time before Queen Mary.
- 02:31
- We're going to look at her in another podcast. The question is, what did the King James Bible originally include?
- 02:37
- Well, we're going to get into that tomorrow. If you'd like to find out more about English translations, check out our classes on the
