00:00 / 31:11
Since I started to read the King James Bible, I find very nice things there. I would like to say a few kind, loving words about that, but it's almost impossible without first talking about Bible translations, Hebrew, Aramaic, the Jewish–Roman wars, artistically illuminated manuscripts from Lindisfarne, the Gutenberg's invention that changed the world and, of course, one particular Mel Gibson film about the greatest love and greatest sacrifice in the history of the world. Two or three more episodes will be released about the KJV later: next part will be about the English Reformation and translations of the Bible into Early Modern English, and then we'll speak about the King James Bible itself.
