There was a time I thought the KJV was the one to go by, but as time went by, and doing more research, I found myself questioning the KJV, and many other translations.
Thing is when doing research concerning the bible, especially the KJV and other versions, if something is missing from other translations after the KJV, then it is most likely because earlier manuscripts were used (compared to the manuscripts used for the KJV), so the question is, if later manuscripts had writings that were not present in earlier manuscripts, where did the extra writings come from?
But over the years I found myself asking more questions concerning the bible and the many translations. I have come across some verses when comparing the KJV, Septuagint, and the Samaritan Pentateuch, and I have come across instances where each translation says something totally different.
Well, we can rule out the Samaritan reading straight away because our Lord basically states (at least strongly implies) that they are in error.
