Originally published in 1611, the King James Bible (KJB) remains the most recognizable piece of literature in the English-speaking world today. For over three centuries, it served as the standard English Bible and has, as such, exerted unparalleled influence on English and American culture in nearly every sphere--including education, law, literature, government, art, science, and religion. The Legacy of the King James Bible honors the 400th anniversary of the KJB's publication by telling its story--a drama that starts with the pioneering work of William Tyndale and progresses through half a dozen other popular translations. Leland Ryken, an expert on the Bible as literature, explores the excellence of the King James Bible by examining its status as the climax of a century of English Bible translations, its impression on the subsequent history of Bible translation, its inherent literary excellence, and its overall impact on English and American literature and culture. The Legacy of the King James Bible will shed new light on the depth of the translation's merit and influence and offer insight as to what its role may be in the next 400 years.

Donald L. Brake quantifies the legacy of this remarkable tome's unique place in history. The 1611 King James Version is the cornerstone and linchpin for all subsequent English translations. He vividly portrays the quality of this seventeenth-century translation as that of precision, enchantment, and passion of a sacred book that has shaped human history for more than two thousand years. He recounts details that emphasize its use of a metric style and rhythm generating a lyrical masterpiece with a compelling resonance for public reading. The KJV's mastery of English expression and its seemingly endless staying power is unparalleled among modern versions. Using thorough comparisons of editions and versions, the author has researched the KJV with the goal of an honest and reasoned approach to the ever-debated value of the popular, but outdated Authorized Version. Brake's study prompted him to do a worldwide census of surviving 1611 "He" Bibles (identified from Ruth 3:15: ". . . and he went into the city."). His purpose was to establish a pedigree of sorts by recording for each copy an exhaustive description eliminating much of the risk of confusion in identifying the nearly 200 extant copies. He cautions that the value of any original KJV depends on a positive identification of authenticity. Brake's work confirms the premise that the literary merits and conscientious translation of a seventeenth-century book has profound twenty-first century relevance.

Poets, scientists, musicians, artists, historians, and more have come together in this volume to discuss the impact of the KJV in their own disciplines. This book is not an argument for using only the KJV, but is a celebration of the way God used this translation to impact so many spheres of life. Sadly, too many people only know of the KJV from argumentative contexts (arguing for or against its exclusive use), and they fail to recognize its beauty and positive impact on our world. This book collects essays from an event held at Union University in 2011 in honor of the 400th anniversary of the KJV. "The goal of this book (and the event from which it emerged) then is not simply nostalgia. Rather, the aim is to celebrate God's mighty deeds of the past with an eye to how we may be a part of his work in the future. The story of the KJV is one part of the grand story of making the Word of God available to people, as many people as possible. It is a story of unity as different factions on the Church of England came together to produce a translation which would unite, in many ways, English speaking Christians for centuries as, despite their differences, they all had a common Bible, a common religious language. It is an example of the church leading the culture rather than following it as is sadly so often the case today. The KJV continues to be a touchstone and standard in English literature and oratory, as even unbelieving writers look to and appreciate its style and rhythm. The story of the KJV is the story of missions and evangelism as this translation was the translation behind the great missionary movement of the 19th century and the Great Awakenings" (taken from the Introduction)
