AdamR Posted May 10, 2011 Author Share Posted May 10, 2011 Bumping this up again. Can someone inform me which edition of the KJV and KJV Apocrypha is used by Accordance in the KJVS and KJVA modules? 1611? Something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Lang Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 I believe it is the 1611. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR Posted May 11, 2011 Author Share Posted May 11, 2011 David, I think you're right. I was looking at the Oxford World Classics edition of the KJV and the text matches perfectly. Anyone know of a good hardcover that contains the same edition as Accordance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert N Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 I think that it would be nice if this type of information was included in the "About the Text" for each text. I wish it would be displayed after leaving the cursor on the text abbreviation for a few seconds. I think this would be a nice addition. David, I think you're right.

Mark Allison Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 An update to the KJV was made in 1769, primarily involving changes in punctuation and capitalization. Our KJVS reflects those changes, so it is at least the 1769 edition, if not newer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Allison Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 As a follow-up to my previous post, I found the following information from the website http://www.bible-researcher.com/canon10.html which may be helpful: "In 1769 the Oxford University Press published an edition of the King James version in which many small changes were made. These changes were of five kinds: 1. Greater and more regular use of italics; 2. minor changes in the text; 3. the adoption of modern spelling; 4. changes in the marginal notes and references; and, 5. correction of printers' errors. This edition soon came to be known as "The Oxford Standard" edition, because it was widely accepted as a standard text by commentators and other publishers. The editions of the King James version published in our century generally reproduce this Oxford edition of 1769, with or without the marginal notes."
