  I found a quote from the W/T in regards to the KJV of the bible being the best version and then closed the page by accident and now cannot find it. Can any one give me the quote and the reference as well for this.

  Thanks

  Hi, and welcome to the forum. Not sure which Bible you are referring to. Is it the NWT, or the KJV Bible that you want to find it in?

  Edited to add: Is it in a certain Watchtower publication? Which one?

  Thanks for your quick reply

  It was a quote in a watchtower about the KJV being the best version out there. Of course now the JW's have the NWT.

  I would like to find the quote that the society made about the KJV so I can point it out to the JW's as they tell me their NWT version is the best.

  Thanks

  Windsong, I don't have the resources to find that quote, but I'm sure someone on this forum can find it for you.

  Sure wish I could help you more than this. Keep checking back and someone should give you an idea of where it is. Do you have the Watchtower mag that you found it in in front of you?

  If so, what's the date on the magazine?

  In the book "Creation," published in 1927 by the Watchtower Society, Joseph Rutherford proclaimed that the "King James Version" was the most "masterful and perfect" version of the Bible! Rutherford states:
  
  "In the year 1611 A. D. what is commonly known as the Authorized Version was produced. It is otherwise known as the King James Version, because King James of England was the prime mover in having it prepared."
  
  Doubtless there has never been a more masterful and perfect English publication than the Authorized Version of the Bible.
  
  Scan of page 117.
