A keyword searchable edition of The King James Bible available for handhelds, desktops and laptops. Including Old Testament and New Testament, this is a wonderful tool that keeps the scriptures at your fingertips.

The translation was done by forty-seven Church of England scholars, the New Testament coming from the Greek Textus Receptus (Received Text), the Old Testament from the Masoretic Hebrew text, and the Apocrypha from the Greek Septuagint (LXX), except for two Esdras from the Latin Vulgate.
J.N-Turner: The Bible, filled with ancient texts, poems and wisdom, can I say anything more. The greatest poet, the most wisest King, and the acts of ordinary people doing extraordinary things makes this book Amazing and a must read. So many people talk about Socrates, and Plato and Shakespeare and so forth, but what about King Solomon, King David, Jesus, Daniel and so forth? The poems and the proverbs easily surpasses the writings of any philosopher or poet out there. I have a very personal connection with this book, It saved my life! This Jewish history book, a love letter from God, acts of amazing people, stories of old, and the wisdom of Kings will change your life to be a person you never thought you could be. This is my favorite book of all time!… (more)

This is a miscellaenous "catch-all" for complete Bibles where the translation (aka "version") cannot be determined. Please do not combine it with other, known translations, and separate out any copies with known translations.
If you want to move your copy to a different work, please add the version to your title so others can verify where it belongs.
