- Third Millennium Bible
The Third Millennium Bible (TMB), also known as the New Authorized Version, is a 1998 minor update of the
King James Version of theBible . Unlike theNew King James Version , it does not alter the language significantly from the 1611 version, retainingJacobean grammar (including "thees" and "thous"), but it does attempt to replace some of the vocabulary which no longer would make sense to a modern reader.An example from Ezra 9:3
King James Version ...and sat down astonied. Third Millennium Bible ....and sat down stunned. The TMB also, like the original KJV in 1611, contains the Apocryphal/Deuterocanonical books of the
Old Testament in between the Old andNew Testament s. This has helped win it some support among traditionalist Anglicans and Eastern Orthodox Christians. A version without the Apocrypha (and with fomatting changes) is known as the21st Century King James Version .External links
