    If the point of your tread is actually correct, Jordan Kurecki, can you explain how these claimed superior KJV translators could leave actual errors uncorrected from the 1602 edition of the Bishops' Bible in their 1611 edition of the KJV?

    If these errors are merely assumed to be the fault of the printers, it still would not explain why the claimed superior KJV translators left them still uncorrected for many years in later editions of the KJV. Several of the KJV translators held positions of authority where they could have required these errors be corrected in later editions if they were aware of them.

    For one example, seventeen of the early editions of the KJV printed at London in the 1600's had the error "Jehoiachin" [the name of the wrong king] at 2 Kings 24:19 kept uncorrected from the 1602 edition of the Bishops' Bible.
