They don't have the same beginning and end
ESV changes the beginning, and some doctrines with it
Gen 1:1 In the beginning, God created the heavenS and the earth.
It also changes the end
Rev 22:20 He who testifies to these things says, "Surely I am coming soon." Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!
Surely! Only 2000 years, in comparison to a total of 4000 years that had passed since he said it...
KJV
Gen 1:1 In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth.
Rev 22:20 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
cf. 1Co 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
