Wovon es handelt
Die King-James-Bibel von 1611: Altes und Neues Testament in der Fassung, die drei Jahrhunderte lang der maßgebliche englische Text war.
Kontext und Geschichte
Jakob I. gab sie in Auftrag, rund vierzig Übersetzer in sechs Kommissionen führten sie aus, doch begannen sie nicht bei null: Ein großer Teil der Prosa stammt von William Tyndale, der 1536 hingerichtet wurde, weil er die Bibel ins Englische übersetzt hatte. Man sollte im Blick behalten, dass dies eine Übersetzung ist: In jeder Textfrage sind die Urtexte das Hebräische und das Griechische, und dort ist zu prüfen.

And the evening and the morning were the sixth day. 2:1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.…
