Hello Just_A_Thought,
I recently learned about Matthew Verschuur's (BibleProtector) research into the various
editions of the King James Bible text. I appreciate his work in this area, work that has been done by many others but none seem to have gone to the extent that Matthew has gone. I appreciate knowing where their might be a printing error. I do not find any of these printing errors to cause me any doubt, for example, in Matthew 4:1 I know it was the Holy Ghost who led Jesus into the desert regardless of whether Spirit is capitalized or not.
I own several King James Bibles, most of them published by Thomas Nelson. I have my very first Nelson Bible that I received at age six when I first believed - complete with an autograph from Dr. Bob Jones Jr. I also own the King James Study Bible but I rarely, if ever use it. My favorite Bible is my Nelson Pocket Companion Bible because of the small size. I have a early 1900s Holman that belonged to my grandfather and the Hendrickson's reproduction of the 1611 edition, just to have a copy. My most recent purchase was the Collins paperback that contains the "Pure Cambridge Edition" as confirmed by Matthew. I bought this simply to have a copy, not to abandon my use of my other King James Bible. I will likely purchase the Allan Pitt Minion edition because the size is nearly identical to my Nelson Pocket Companion Bible, will last forever due to the quality of Allan's publishing process, and as an extra bonus it does contain the Pure Cambridge Edition text.
Peace,
Harley
