The Revised Standard Bible: What about who translated this version? I want to zero in on how this bible was put together, who paid for it to be originated and why. Please refer me to the source materials to answer these questions in order to reveal how superior the KJV is over all other efforts and claims to be God's Word. The KJV is the only true written in English and unedited?

I think the Septuagint is an authentic translation of the Old Testament. It was written about 300 years before Christ in Greek.

Thx for the suggestion to find an RSV website. I assume there is none; no such website of the Revised Standard Version because of various reasons.

What I'm so thankfu for l is this Official KJV website because it is so helpful. The first two answers to my questions about the RSV and translations were most informative and insightful.

Thx again my fellow KJVers. My suspicions of false teaching is confirmed. I was edified, exhorted and consoled by both answers. Just checking. The "KJV truth" has set me straight. Blessings, JD.

You can go the the NIV bible online and you can click on Parallel. Then you can select two versions and both do not need to be the NIV version. that may help you.

Hi, you may had success looking for a site that has parallel translations. Maybe type in "parallell bible - RSV

Then you need to find an RSV site . Good hunting and may God bless you .

JD Moore, may CHRIST IN US grace us with HIS wisdom and HIS understanding.

Man translated the bible, man has beliefs of his own; often, using the word being translated to fit His belief.

Why did the translators translate the Greek word hades (sheol in Hebrew) half the time GRAVE and half the time HELL, when the same word is being translated.

Revelation 1:18 ....I (Christ) have the keys of hell (HADES) and death.

1 Corinthians 15:55 ... O grave (HADES), where is thy victory.

The same Greek word translated two ways.

The translators couldn't translate hades as hell in 1 Corinthians 15:55 because Christ has victory over hell (hades).

Christ has VICTORY over DEATH and THE GRAVE, keys (VICTORY) of the GRAVE (mistranslated hell) and DEATH.

These keys and this victory is Christ RESURRECTION.

John 11:25 .... I am the resurrection ...... Keys (victory) of DEATH and the GRAVE

The same translators translated the Greek word aion to mean eternally or everlasting or for ever and ever, when it aion should have been translated AGE.

Revelation 11:15 ....and he shall reign forever and ever...should be translated, he shall reign for the AGE of the AGES.

We know this is correct because 1 Corinthians 15:24 says when he has subdued all thing to himself he will turn the kingdom back to the Father, so he has to reign for the AGE OF AGES and not for ever and ever.
