Here is a comparison between KJV and ESV:

quote:

---

KJV – This translation was created in the 1600’s. It completely excludes the Alexandrian Manuscripts and solely relies on the Textus Receptus. This translation is usually taken very literally, despite the obvious differences in use of language today.

ESV – This version was originally created in 2001. It was based on a 1971 Revised Standard Version.

So where did the RSV come from?

quote:

---

The Revised Standard Version of the Bible (RSV) is an authorized revision of the American Standard Version, published in 1901, which was a revision of the King James Version, published in 1611.

So let me get this straight. Your ESV is a revision of the RSV which is a revision of the ASV which was revised from the KJV. ... So they found and corrected mistakes in KJV in 1901 and after a couple more revisions you found the hill you want to die on. ... Say hello to the fallen angel for me.
