The King James Version (KJV) has shaped the church, our worship, and our mother tongue for over 400 years. But what should we do with it today?

The KJV beautifully rendered the Scriptures into the language of turn-of-the-17th-century England. Even today, the King James version is the most widely read Bible in the United States. The rich cadence of its Elizabethan English is recognized even by non-Christians. But English has changed a great deal over the last 400 years and in subtle ways that very few modern readers or listeners will recognize. In Authorized, Mark L. Ward, Jr. shows what people who exclusively pursue the KJV are missing as they read God's word.

In their introduction to the King James Bible, the translators tell us that Christians must "hear Christ speaking unto them in their mother tongue." In Authorized, Mark Ward builds a case for the KJV translators' view that English Bible translations should be readable by what they called "the very vulgar" and what we would call "the man on the street".

I really enjoyed listening to this. I watched Mark's documentary a couple of years ago so this was a great refresher. I find it heartwarming that Mark presents the difficulties associated with the KJV purely as language drift. I get that. this language drift completely tripped me up when I was starting out in faith. I picked the KJV up, tried to read it and thought the church needed to co.e out of the 15th century. I put it down after trying to translate it into Engkish and didn't pick a bible up again until 7 or 8 years later. I ended up with an NIV and managed to get into the bible with that. I now own another KJV which I read but without English translations I would have been lost. Mark sums the problems up nicely. Thanks Msrk.

This is a really excellent book expertly read by the author, Mark Ward. I really loved his quotes from the KJV and other sources delivered in an Elizabethan accent! Most of all I really appreciated the ‘embarrassment of riches’ we have currently in excellent English Bible translations. His thoughts on the KJV are well explained and evidence based. I certainly have a new appreciation of the KJV but also a new view that no translation is best. I intend to make more use of the many translations we have in English as I continue to study God's word.
