King James Version Holy Bible - The Gospels

In the Bible, the first four books of the New Testament are known as the Gospels. These four books tell the story of the beginnings of Christianity, from the birth of Jesus to his death and resurrection. Each gospel is told from a slightly different perspective, thought many stories and events are illustrated in multiple books. Matthew - The first of the four gospels was written between 80 and 90 a.d., and gives accounts of the major events of Jesus's life from birth, through his young life and early ministry, to his death, resurrection, and commissioning of people to spread word of his life throughout the world. Out of the four gospels, Matthew has the most references to Old Testament prophecy fulfillment. Mark - Mark was written near 70 a.d., and was likely the first written of the four. This gospel begins in the middle of Jesus' life, telling of his ministry from his baptism through the discovery of his tomb being empty after his death. Unlike other gospels, Mark focuses less on the before and after of Jesus' life, and more on his teachings and ministry. Luke - The longest of the four gospels, Luke was written between 80 - 110 a.d. and covers many similar events to the preceding two. Like Matthew, Luke begins with the birth of Jesus and extends through his resurrection and ascension. Luke is often considered the most elegantly written of the four. John - The final gospel was written between 90 - 110 a.d., and was largely written to be evidence of the divine identity of Jesus. Going back through Old Testament signs and Jewish teachings, the gospel of John is structured to provide both historical context and a record of Jesus' life and ministry. This collection is presented in the King James Version translation, one of the most accurate, formal, and traditional translations of the New Testament.

This book is a detailed account of all of the commands and instructions given by God to Moses to convey to the Israelites for how to live as God's people. Numbers - Numbers is the beginning of the Israelites' journey to take Canaan, the Promised Land, into their own possession. They prepare for their trek but end up not following through on the orders from God, and are punished for their lack of faith by never reaching the Promised Land for themselves. Deuteronomy - After the Israelites are condemned to never see the Promised Land, they wander for 40 years in the desert, with Moses delivering sermons and diatribes on the laws set in place.

King James Version Holy Bible - The Psalms

Explore the major work of poetry of the Bible with this unabridged presentation of The Book of Psalms in the King James Version translation. The Book of Psalms is the longest book of the Bible and contains 150 psalms. Psalms were songs written as expressions of praise, declarations of emotions, laments of sorrow or guilt, celebrations of events, and more. The Psalms were written by many authors, and many of them are attributed to King David. Whether he did write them is still debated by scholars, but many of the Psalms reference moments in his life and kingship. While the Psalms were originally written as songs to be played with music, the lyrics themselves are poetic and enjoyable in the written word. Some of the Psalms were even written using poetic devices such as repetition, rhyming, parallelism, acrostics, and more. The King James Version of the Bible is translated into the formal English of the 17th century, which remains a beautiful and formal translation used by many denominations to this day. These songs are used as prayers, meditations, and communal expressions of praise or emotions. They're also used in Jewish worship as part of religious rituals and recitations.
