The King James Bible, first published in 1611, is one of the most influential and widely read translations of the Christian Bible. By 1747, this translation had become deeply embedded in English-speaking religious life and culture. Known for its majestic prose and literary quality, the King James Bible was the result of the work of 47 scholars who drew upon earlier translations and the original Hebrew and Greek texts. Its impact extended beyond religion, shaping English literature and language significantly.
