English Bibles

The Battle for the Bible is still raging within the English world. Will the critics ever find the Bible they believe faithfully represents the Bible God wrote? Well, I found a man by the name of George Washington Moon that wrote a book criticizing the Reviser’s and their English. So, who is G. W. Moon?
George Washington Moon (1823-1909)
George Washington Moon was born in London in 1823 and educated at a private school in Barnet. He wrote a number of poetical works as well as several books and pamphlets on English grammar and usage. The latter often focussed critically on the language used by various contemporary writers (including the translators of the Revised Standard Version of the Bible) and this led to a number of counter-attacks and ongoing controversies. Moon died in 1909. https://library.leeds.ac.uk/special-collections/collection/1450
In case you are interested here is the Preface to G. W. Moon’s REVISER’S ENGLISH. The book may be found online in pdf format.
When will they ever have enough Study Bibles? Here is one using the NIV text which I thought was laid aside for the ESV but apparently not so. Satan is still asking that question of Genesis 3:1 ..Yea, hath God said…? Stay with the Authorized King James Bible.

Dr. D. A. Waite has been a friend of mine for many many years and has been a strong defender of the Greek Text underlying the King James Bible and the King James Bible itself. The Four Reasons for Defending the King James Bible booklet was “taken from a message delivered on Wednesday, July 21, 1993, at the 15th Annual Meeting of the Dean Burgon Society..” and is also a very very brief summary of Dr. Waite’s larger book Defending the King James Bible. I trust you will read carefully Dr. Waite’s defense for the English Bible that has been used of God for over four hundred years in the English speaking world.
