If It Ain't Broke... (Part Three of Twelve in our Bible Translation Series)
from Equipoise · host M. Ernest Britt
In this episode, I move to do the following: 1. Dismantle the erroneous "KJV was written on a 5th-grade reading level" narrative 2. Briefly demonstrate a couple of other reasons why we would benefit from a newer translation of the Bible. ALSO: Here's the link to Mark Ward's excellent book on the King James Bible -- note: same as I, he doesn't advocate for doing away with the King James Version. This helpful, read-it-in-two-hours-but-meditate-on-it-for-years kind of book will help you arrive at a balanced perspective on this topic, no matter what your position is on this issue. https://lexhampress.com/product/144705/authorized-the-use-and-misuse-of-the-king-james-bible
