The King James Version (KJV), commonly known as the Authorized Version (AV) or King James Bible (KJB), is an English translation of the Christian Bible for the Church of England begun in 1604 and completed in 1611. First printed by the King's Printer Robert Barker, this was the third translation into English to be approved by the English Church authorities. The first was the Great Bible commissioned in the reign of King Henry VIII, and the second was the Bishops' Bible of 1568. In January 1604, King James I convened the Hampton Court Conference where a new English version was conceived in response to the perceived problems of the earlier translations as detected by the Puritans, a faction within the Church of England.
James gave the translators instructions intended to guarantee that the new version would conform to the ecclesiology and reflect the episcopal structure of the Church of England and its belief in an ordained clergy. The translation was done by 47 scholars, all of whom were members of the Church of England. In common with most other translations of the period, the New Testament was translated from Greek, the Old Testament was translated from Hebrew text, while the Apocrypha were translated from the Greek and Latin. In the Book of Common Prayer (1662), the text of the Authorized Version replaced the text of the Great Bible – for Epistle and Gospel readings – and as such was authorized by Act of Parliament. By the first half of the 18th century, the Authorized Version was effectively unchallenged as the English translation used in Anglican and Protestant churches. Over the course of the 18th century, the Authorized Version supplanted the Latin Vulgate as the standard version of scripture for English speaking scholars. Today, the most used edition of the King James Bible, and often identified as plainly the King James Version, especially in the United States, closely follows the standard text of 1769, edited by Benjamin Blayney at Oxford.

Changing Bibles
As I tried church in Alaska in my early 20s at a good, Bible-believing church, there came a time when I truly struggled in understanding The King James Version of the Holy Bible. As I was regularly attending church and discipleship training, I felt the need for a good Bible, dependable in translation. So I went on a search at a local, Christian bookstore. I settled on the New King James Version. It has helped me harvest truth, knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus, God the Father, and the Holy Spirit. For many years in Bible Study Fellowship, it went with me to each class, regardless of which book we were in. I thank God for leading me to this Bible before I knew I should have prayed about this decision. He is so faithful. He tells us to study to show ourselves approved. I highly recommend the NKJV Bible despite the many other available versions. I also recommend praying over which one to choose and listen for His answer, no matter how it is given to you.
The most important thing a friend of my husband's and mine told us is, "The best Bible is the READ Bible." Thank you Doug. God bless you as you grow in faith, knowledge and are transformed by the continual washing of God's Word in your life daily.TrustingIAm
No ads when opened
I have another version that I really like but it started opening with a full screen ad, sometimes with audible, loud! Can't open that in church!! I also have always used the KJV and am used to it, thought I'd try the NKJV. The highlighting option is also easy. I tried one version where I couldn't remove a highlight, so I couldn't use that to save my place, where I left off reading.
Pretty straight forward Bible app.
I enjoy this app. It's simple to use and I especially like the way the pages flip as though they are virtually paper. However I confess I am used to the scrolling wheel and having to search through the main menu seems a bit clunky to me. Why not make the search option easier albeit quicker too by using a "Quick Menu" at the top? 🤔
