What is the difference between the KJV and the Catholic Bible?
Bible Q&AYour question was:
>what is the difference between king james version and the catholicbible
The Catholic Church accepts the Latin Vulgate translation (made by Jerome in
384 AD) as the accurate translation of the Bible. Of course, it is in
Latin.
The King James Version of the Bible, produced in 1611, was a translation of
the ancient text into the English language. Its translators had the benefit
of many manuscripts and much more textual evidence from which to make their
translation of the Bible than did Jerome in 384. Also, Jerome included many
books of doubtful and uninspired origin in the Latin Vulgate which has never
been accepted as inspired scripture (The Apocrypha).
