  Did you know this about the Bible?!

Fact check time as it relates to the King James Version of the Bible!

King James I did not translate the King James Bible.

The implicit claim of this title is true, to the extent that the KJV was commissioned by King James, and it was presumably the Bible he himself used from 1611 until his death in 1625. 

King James I certainly did not do any of the translating of the KJV. 

He was a very scholarly king, interested in theology and the Bible. 

Among other works, he wrote a book on demonology (1597), (before commissioning the Bible) and a learned exposition on several chapters of Revelation. 

He also translated some of the Psalms into meter, but this practice tended to involve turning English prose versions into verse, rather than rendering the original Hebrew into English.

Lots of people wrote metrical Psalms at this period, and most didn’t know Hebrew.

The commissioning of the King James Bible took place in 1604 at the Hampton Court Conference outside of London. 

The first edition appeared in 1611. 

It has decidedly affected our language and thought categories, and although produced in England for English churches, it played a unique role in the historical development of America. 

King James wanted a popular translation. 

He insisted that the translation use old familiar terms and names and be readable in the idiom of the day and like Constantine I and the Council of Nicea the book was edited for a purpose.

So King James I ordered a new translation. 

It was to be accurate and true to the originals. 

He appointed fifty of the nation's finest language scholars and approved rules for carefully checking the results, but keep in mind he commissioned this work and signed off on it.

As mentioned earlier, before commissioning the Bible to be written King James I wrote Daemonologie, In Forme of a Dialogue, Divided into three Books: By the High and Mighty Prince, James — was written and published in 1597 by King James VI of Scotland (later also James I of England) as a philosophical dissertation on contemporary necromancy and the historical relationships between the various methods of divination used from ancient Black magic. 

It included a study on demonology and the methods demons used to trouble men while touching on topics such as werewolves and vampires. 

It was a political yet theological statement to educate a misinformed populace on the history, practices and implications of sorcery and the reasons for persecuting a witch in a Christian society under the rule of canonical law. 

So was the book on Demonology written to justify atrocious acts and lay the ground for a book (The KJV of The Bible) to be written for the specific use of CONTROL and JUSTIFICATION!

Did it take original writing's and tainted them more than the Romans did?!

Understand the original information written before the KJV of The Bible was even conceived, was information plagerized from The Papyrus of Ani and the Principles of Ma'at thousands of years before Christianity was even a term.

Research the first physical representation of the Trinity... Ausar, Auset and Heru 😉

I would like to request for help to be assisted for the sake of my mother's health. She is sick with chronic Asmatic condition which makes her life difficult with prolonged cough. We wish to request for help to relocate her from our rular areas which is very cold and difficult for her to survive. All the triggers of her condition are present in that area. Helping her out to relocate will be the number one help. Thankyou in advance for your kind gesture towards a sick mother.
