Keen? Probably not in the same sense as you.



I have highlighted all the texts in which god either kills or orders that someone be killed, so mine is somewhat colorful as well.
3 all KJV copies
I collect Bibles, I have just over 90, I have my new king james that is my primary study bible, but I also have a KJV from 1823, I have a darby translation from the late 1800s and everything from King James to The scriptures98 which is a translation from hebrew. I have several Jewish orthodox Torah, etc. Not to mention cases of small NKJV bibles that I give out and mail to people.
I own 5.



1 Tanakh, 1 KJV, 1 NIV, 1 children's illustrated, and 1 with my name embossed on the front (I think it's a KJV as well)


We have a King James, a New King James, an NIV Study Bible, and The Living Bible paraphrased.



We have a study group, use the KJ and NKJ there. The other couple uses a Scofield. (sp?) We often compare phrases and words in the verses. Even look up some words in a Bible dictionary that the other couple has.



We think it all helps us to understand the Word better, to have all these available to us.
Oh my, let's see:



3 King James

1 New King James

1NIV

2Amplified

1NASB

2RSV

1Jerusalem Bible

1New English

plus a Bible program on my computer that has four full versions!
4 my favorite is a Black one printed in Britain by the British %26amp; Foreign Bible Society it's older than I am was printed sometime in the early 1960s.
I have looked at all of them



Here is a king james original text from 1611 and alot of artwork if you like
