Nội dung

According to Norton, only six new readings, together with the reintroduction of at least thirty old readings, were subsequently introduced. David Crystal's Begat: The King James Bible and the English Language is a series of forty or so short chapters giving accounts of some of the 257 idiomatic expressions identified by Crystal as having entered the English language from the KJB - either directly, or indirectly because though they are also found in other translations they have entered public consciousness through being included in the KJB. According to his count, only eighteen expressions are unique to the KJB. [...]he says, phrases from the Psalms such as 'by the waters of Babylon', or 'The Lord is my shepherd' are 'quotations', and as such are 'not in the same league as the idioms that have become a daily part of the English language'.
