I do not pretend my view is authoritative. However, if using a plural is wrong, than scripture was broken for millennia, which I cannot accept. Also, it means the KJV is not a preservation of scripture, but a correction of scripture.

Brian,
There are many, many times that a plural is translated into a singular when using a different language.
I would hazard a guess that every translator does this, if they are to make proper sense of the sentence in context, and in this case, biblical sense.

Scripture has been broken in that it has been scattered for millenia.
But no, the Scriptures have not been broken.
The AV IS the best there is in the world.
It has had the privilege of preserving the word of God in perfection.
And yes it has the fact of a perfecting of that which was from good stock, that has human errors. Tyndale to Erasmus and Beza.
