10. SO WHAT HAPPENED? Negative arguments :  The translators of the KJB.  English language has changed. Forget the “Thees” and “Thous” that everyone complains about.  The Preface.  KJB adopt Latin readings not found in the Greek.

11. THE KJB ERRORS Genesis 10:9 KJV Bible: "... Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the LORD." Better Translation: "... Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter in place of the LORD." Comments: The word "before" is incorrect and gives the connotation that Nimrod was a good guy, which is false. Nimrod placed himself in OPPOSITION to God.

12. THE KJB ERRORS Ezekiel 20:25 KJV Bible: "Wherefore I gave them also statutes that were not good, and judgments whereby they should not live; " Better Translation: "Wherefore I permitted them, or gave them over to, false statutes that are not good,and judgments whereby they should not live." Comments: God's laws are good, perfect and right. This verse shows that since Israel rejected God's laws, He allowed them to hurt themselves by following false man made customs and laws.

13. THE KJB ERROR John 1:17 KJV Bible: "For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. Better Translation: "For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ." Comments: This is another instance of a poor preposition. Moses did not proclaim his OWN law, but the law that GOD gave him to proclaim.
