Revisions of the 1611 KJV Bible

Question:  Haven't there been several revisions of the King James Bible since 1611?

There have been, technically speaking, 4 editions of the KJV since 1611 up to about 1769.  We must realize that these 'revisions' were simply corrections in printing errors that the printers themselves made down at the printing shop, or corrections in spelling and punctuation, or printing style. We must understand that the printing process was not as dependable as we have today with the computer age.  Another source of 'changes' was in spelling of words in the King James Bible. You see, punctuation and spelling of words changed during this period of the English language, and as a word come to have a settled and one correct spelling, that was the spelling that was adopted by 1769.  We must understand that before that time, a word could have several different spellings and still be considered 'correct'.  This is the vast majority of the 'thousands' of changes critics have pointed to in order to belittle the King James Bible.  Other Changes were in punctuation.  Punctuation, too, came to a settled form by 1769.

The myth that there are several 'major' revisions to the 1611 KJV should be getting clearer.  These are not 'revisions' but rather 'corrections'.   There is no change to the text between 1611 and 1769, rather the correcting of errors that the printers made down at the print shop.  These are called TYPOGRAPHICAL ERRORS.

The other corrections were in spelling and punctuation and in style of printing from Gothic to Roman Style.

For the NEW King James version to say it is simply a '5th Revision' of the 1611 KJV is just NOT true!  It makes 60,000 changes to the TEXT!  These changes are from the altered erroneous Alexandrian text behind the NIV and all the other newer versions WHICH ARE ALL MESSED UP! 

Stay with the King James Bible.  Your 1769 Edition has corrected printing errors made back then and it has made proper changes in spelling and punctuation that should be today.
