The King James Bible

This afternoon my son shared with me the YouTube video “The History of the English Language in Ten Minutes.” Chapter 4 is all about the influence of the King James Bible, so I thought I’d share it here as part of our continuing coverage of the 4ooth anniversary of what is undoubtedly the best-known version of the Bible in English.

Chapter 4 is embedded below. To see the complete video, follow this link: History of English. Caution: Some may find a few scenes in the complete video offensive.
