Cool, they have Baha'i books too! And the King James version is comparable to the Dutch 'Statenvertaling'. King James gave the order to translate the Bible into English. He also wanted to help the Dutch but they refused..I guess they didn't want England to have too much influence or something. Anyway, the translation is called King James Version because it was King James' order.

 

ya, they have everything pretty much, i another forum member posted this a while ago in the plain philosiphy & religion forum...

 

well, like the dutch 'statenvertalng', KJ is the oldest english bible translation, and I was seeking for one of the newest ones. What thread did you talk about, burbot, I couldn't find anuthing, could you show me?
