    <body><![CDATA[The King James Only Controversy: Can you trust modern translations? By James R. White is now an updated expanded second edition.  I never got a chance to read the original edition and I know the question on many people’s mind is “Why is an new edition needed? – I thought the KJV only thing died out awhile ago.”  While the main focus of the book is to explain and help the reader understand how and why the King James and modern translations (i.e. NIV, ESV, NKJV, and NASB to name a few) came into being and how the scholars and translators chose the English words to explain the Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek words. <br/><br/>This book is a great introduction to Textual Criticism (which is not bad at all) and the reliability of the modern Bible translations we have.  It will also help the reader understand the Bible better and help them defend it when questioned about the reliability of it.  It is not a hard book to read but it is not an easy book either – it will make you think.<br/><br/>As Mr. White states repeatedly – this is NOT an anti-KJV book but more of a call for a greater understanding in the church on how we have the translations we have and how accurate they are. <br/><br/>I would highly recommend this book to anyone who has a friend in the KJV-only camp and/or wants a greater understanding on how we have gotten our Bibles we have today.<br/>]]></body>
