Hello,

 

How do I find the manuscripts used to translate the Authorized King James Version in Logos? 

 

Thank You!

    The KJV Reverse Interlinear (KJV 1900) is aligned with "The New Testament in Greek (Scrivener 1881)" in the NT. See

    Note that OT Reverse Interlinears are all aligned with the
    Andersen-Forbes Analyzed Hebrew Text.

    If you want the historical manuscripts used for the original KJV I think you will find the answer for the NT in the links above but I'm not sure about the OT.

    Douglas,

    I had a question along a similar line, looking for the source of Erasmus'' translation of Ephs 3:9. I haven't found out entirely yet.

    Anyway, This may not be the direct answer you would want but... it may help to some degree.

    Best of luck,

    In Christ Jesus

    EDIT: Just saw Dave's post... there is some good info there!

    Also here a blurb from the NT text product page.

    http://www.logos.com/greek/nt/texts

    "While some try to associate the King James Version New Testament to a particular manuscript, it is really linked to the "family" of texts that we today describe with the term "Textus Receptus"; texts like Stephen's and the Elzevir texts, as well as Beza's 1598 edition."
