    I enjoy opening my old, well worn, duct taped, marked up, written in, PRINT Bible. Can't stand the "pull out your I-pad or cell phone, and find.....". Give me a BIBLE, the old fashioned kind, every day.

    These Landmark Baptists seem to be repeating the unproven claim of a KJV-only Pentecostal in Australia concerning a so-called "Pure Cambridge Edition" although they could have picked up the claim from some KJV-only Baptists.

    There have been several varying Cambridge editions of the KJV printed since 1611, and Cambridge University Press does not identify any certain one of them as 100% pure.

    I looked at a couple books of the Old Testament at this web site. The book of Genesis appears to be like a Cambridge edition at a glance, but the book of 1 Samuel displays differently.

    As it displayed on my computer, apostrophes look like the bottom of a small letter i with an apostrophe on top instead of a dot or period. I do not have a letter like that on my computer so I will type it as a normal i.

    For example, 1 Samuel 2:8 has "LORDis" instead of "LORD's".
    1 Samuel 2:13 has "priestsi custom" instead of "priests' custom" and "priestis servant" instead of "priest's servant."

    Apostrophes displayed like normal in the book of Genesis. I have not yet checked any other books in this edition.
