The King James Bible Contains God's Built-in
Dictionary
Well-known author Gail Riplinger began this research upon learning of a
Christian prisoner's phenomenal leap in reading test scores after reading
the King James Bible daily for a year. He jumped from a 5th-grade reading
level, to 17th grade (post-graduate) level.
How did reading one book, which some falsely claim is difficult, manage to
help him, rather than frustrate him? The answer lies in the King James
Bible's built-in dictionary.

It has a vocabulary that phonaesthetically fulfills the Bible's own

important concepts and memorability.

Uncovers pitfalls in the NIV, NKJV, KJ21, NASB, NRSV, CEV
The Language of the King James Bible demonstrates the following and more:
-
The recent discovery of the world's oldest New Testament fragment
(Magdalen Papyrus A.D. 60) proves the KJV correct and the NIV,
CEV, NRSV, NASB, and most new versions wrong.
-
Jesuit Cardinal Carlo Marie Martini, editor of the Greek text
which is used by NIV, NASB, and most new version translators,
writes in his recent book that man can be "divine."
-
The Dead Sea Scroll scandal leaves new versions on shaky ground.
-
Forensic stylonomy would conclude that the new versions were
written by an effeminate man or a woman. This corroborates the
recent comment by the former Monitor of the Christian Reformed
Church that NIV Old Testament Chairman, Martin Woudstra, was
believed to be a homosexual.
-
The inclusive language translations are exposed.
-
The translation of Lucifer (helel) in Isa. 14:12 is proven correct.

Reader Reviews
Deals specifically with the fact that the context of the King James reveals the meanings of its "archaic" words. Interesting examples and conclusion. Also a reference to the first times a word is used carrying the word's meaning. (In my little book, I give the first reference [at least] in the Bible of each word). —David Daniels
