King James, the nephew of Queen
Elizabeth the First, was born to Catholic Mary. He started his career in
politics as King James the Sixth of Scotland and later in 1603 became the King
of England and came to be known as King James the First.
Before the era of King James, there
were several versions of the Bible in England, which had footnotes
favoring the ecclesiastical and political positions of the writers of the
Bible. King James Version Bible
The King James Version Bible does
not have any notes that favors or popularizes any political cause. It solely
speaks about Christianity as the Church of England perceives the religion. King
James Version Bible is a revised version of the Bishop s Bible.
The Bible was compared to the other
existing Bibles and the translation was made in a way to fit the parameters
laid by King James. In 1611, the King James Version Bible was completed and was
printed in English. There was a lot of competition and rivalry between the
printing presses to obtain the rights for printing the Bible. Cambridge
University Press finally purchased the rights of printing the King James
Version Bible in the 1900s.
