Answer 2

Began in 1601, the Authorized Version of the Bible was first published in 1611. It was largely based on the Bishops Bible, the Geneva Bible, and a translation by William Tyndale . Having three English versions was becoming an issue in the church, so it was decided to combine them with a single authorized English version.

The version would go through several revision within the first 50 years of its existence, most to correct printing errors. Once finalized, it would remain unchanged until the late 1790's, when it's spelling and punctuation would be revised to reflect changes in the language over the 200 years since it was translated.

The 1790 version is what people today think of as the "King James" Bible, a nickname applied to it about a century after it was first published. It is technically the "Authorized Version of the English Bible".

Answer 3

It was completed in 1611, it was started in 1604. The term you use, ¨King James Bible¨ is not accurate. It is commonly and historically called the AV1611, or, Authorized Version for short. This designation distinguishes it from other unauthorized translations. King James Bible, or KJV terms were invented by opponents of the AV1611 that it would appear to be another in a long line of translations numbering well over 200, i.e. NIV ASV LVB, etc. Nonetheless, the AV1611 remains unchanged from its original translation completed nearly 400 years ago except for minor spelling corrections which occurred roughly in the 1780s when the English language was standardized.

Answer 4

All the answers so far are right. It was commissioned in 1601, it was published in 1611.

However, the bulk of the words in the KJV NT, were actually written by William Tyndale between 1520 and 1535. Unfortunately Tyndale's translating activities were curtailed by the church in 1536 when he was burned at the stake.

Answer 5

The actual books in the KJV were written at various stages in history.. with Job being the oldest in the bible. But 1611 was when the books in the bible were put together

Answer 6

the 1st 5 books of the KJV bible have been written on the time of Exodus As reported under: DEUTERONOMY . Moses writes 13 copies of the completed Torah, giving one to each and each tribe and putting one in the Holy Ark. The 5 Books of Moses close with the loss of life of "the final of all prophets" and "the main humble of all adult adult males," Moses. something of the old testomony replaced into as Jesus stated In Matthew and Luke transcribed by way of the scribes verbatim. the hot testomony replaced into written as suggested above, and have been canonized on the Council of Nicea. There are an spectacular many greater manuscripts that are actually not in the bible.

Answer 7

http://www.bible-researcher.com/kjvhist.html gives the entire history of the King James bible.

King James authorised it in January of 1604. Two different proof copies were published in 1611. The "final" version, as we know it today, was in 1612, even though the faceplate always declares it published in 1611.

Answer 8

1611 is the published date of the translation. Have you ever tried reading the original 1611 version. It's absolutely stunning how the language has changed over the centuries.

Answer 9

1611

Answer 10

To be clear, the King James Bible was not "written," it is a translation. The bible itself was written over a very long period of time, beginning thousands of years ago.

Answer 11

It was written long before the 1600's, but was first published for sale in 1611.
