The account in Acts that you are mentioning does not exist in the oldest, most reliable manuscripts. The KJV is good - I have one and use it, BUT it was written over 400 years ago. We have found many manuscripts since then that are much older than those used in the TR, which is what the KJV is based on. If you would like an in depth discussion on this issue, read Metzger's Commentary on the Greek New Testament. | ||||||

KJ, How the NT has been preserved and transmitted to us is a fascinating story. I wholeheartedly recommend Metzger's book - although he mainly deals with differences in the manuscripts. There was another book "The New Testament Documents, Are They Reliable?" by F.F. Bruce that I was looking at in Barnes and Noble yesterday. Here is a quick look at it http://www.discerningreader.com/newtesdocffb.html Huron |
