    Hi Debbie. The King James Bible was first commissioned in 1604 AD at Hampton Court, London by Scotland's James VI who then became King James I of England. The Bible however, wasn't released till 1611 AD. There were a variety of reasons for this 'new' Bible, which James particularly wanted because he despised the existing Geneva Bible that was very popular with the masses & for its Calvinistic leanings. And with the Puritan's pressure on him, he decided to have a new, more accurate translation undertaken; and this he did with fifty of the nation's finest Hebrew/Greek scholars. These scholars used the "Textus Receptus" (Received Text) Manuscript which has proven more accurate & reliable than some of the older manuscripts that contain many errors & conflicts.

    You can do further research on this on the Web if you need any more details of those times of King James reign.
