Brand new from smoke and mold free home - still in shrink wrap

As suitable for reading as it is valuable for reference, this book provides

an explicit and comprehensive examination of every word in the Authorized

Version of the Bible that has been deemed archaic, obsolete, antiquated, or

otherwise outmoded. The result is both a fascinating and encyclopedic study 

of words - their meaning, derivation, usage, and significance. The thesis of 

this seminal work is that the Authorized Version is no more archaic than daily

newspapers, current magazines, and modern Bible versions. To further 

supplement the work and to substantiate the underlying thesis, reference is

made not only to various newspapers and magazines but to contemporary 

Bible versions like the New King James Version, the New International

Version, the New American Standard Bible, and the New Revised Standard

Version. This book is unique in that it seeks neither to criticize nor correct

the text of the Authorized Version. Extensively documented with over

5000 footnotes, the book contains twenty-four chapters and fourteen

appendixes, with a preface, introduction, epilogue, and bibliography.
