This Bible includes the Apocrypha as well as cross-references, concordance, and dictionary. Many people have been brought up with the King James Version, and continue to read it with great affection throughout their lives. Commissioned by King James I in 1603 and first published in 1611, its objective was 'to make God's holy Truth to be yet more and more known unto the people'. This new printing comes in fine black calfskin leather and offers Bible scholars not only the King James text with the Apocrypha, but full cross-references, a Concordance and Dictionary as well. The Apocrypha, or Deuterocanonical Books, have been included so as to respond to the need expressed by King James adherents for a Bible incorporating these secondary Biblical texts.
