King James Bible 2016

New Testament

 

   

8:1Now concerning things offered to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love edifies.
8:2And if anyone thinks that he knows anything, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know.
8:3But if anyone loves God, this one is known of Him.
8:4Therefore concerning the eating of things that are offered in sacrifice to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no other God but one.
8:5Because, even if there are so called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as there are many gods and many lords),
8:6yet for us there is only one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in Him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, even ourselves by Him.
8:7However, not everyone possesses that knowledge; but some, with consciousness of the idol, until now eat it as a thing offered to an idol; and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.
8:8But food does not commend us to God; because neither if we eat are we better off, nor if we do not eat are we worse off.
8:9But beware lest somehow this liberty of yours becomes a stumbling block to those who are weak.
8:10Because, if anyone sees you who have knowledge eating in an idol's temple, shall not the conscience of him who is weak be emboldened to eat those things offered to idols?
8:11And because of your knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died?
8:12But when you all sin like this against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, you all sin against Christ.
8:13Therefore, if food makes my brother stumble, I will never eat meat while the world stands, lest I make my brother stumble.

King James Bible 2016

Unlike most other modern versions, this Bible's text is based upon the same Hebrew Masoretic Text, and Greek Textus Receptus, of the King James Version of 1611.

In non Textus Receptus versions, the issue of having the best underlying manuscripts, is often overshadowed by the massive amount of omissions in the text. Because the KJV 2016 is not dealing with issues of omission and addition, the focus has been upon definition, and the KJV translators choices have been used as the benchmark.

One issue not often majored upon in the bible version debate is simply the way Greek words are defined. Many times, the NKJV leans upon the definition choices of modern versions as well as defaulting to Vines and Strong's definitions, which are almost always favorable to the Revised Version. In other words, one may have a correct text to translate from, but use erroneous modern version/modern dictionary definitions which change or distort the meaning of the words. Jay Green was accused of having a good TR bible but with "Alexandrian readings".

The KJV 2016 Edition rejects such erroneous modern definitions and restores the distinctness of historical KJV readings. The NKJV also tended to gravitate toward KJV marginal notes, which are in truth, rejected readings, and also toward Geneva Bible definitions, which the KJV had already cleared up.
