This is the Bible that started it all. This Bible in children's
language is dedicated to every young man and young lady in the
world Originally published in 1960, it is a word for word updating
of the King James in language that any normal 9 year old can read.
No greater riches can be put in youth's hands than the riches
contained in this book. Every God-breathed word is in these
volumes. For the first time since it was written nearly two
thousand years ago, every word is being given to young men and
ladies, broken down into their own language. Now for the first time
the fruit of the Spirit of God is offered to young readers so that
they can gather its fruit for themselves. And what glorious fruit
it is "The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering,
kindness, goodness, faith, meekness, self-control" and "everlasting
life." (See Galatians 5:22; 6:8) Is there anyone that does not
desire such fruit as this in their life and future? Is not
happiness itself bound up in these things? And more, is not the
reading of the Bible the only hope of living forever? For God has
said, "This is life everlasting, that they should know Thee, the
only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom Thou didst send." And how
shall they know Him? "Faith comes by hearing, and haring by the
word of God." The reading of the Bible is their only hope, but it
is a blessed hope indeed. In providing this Bible for children, our
purpose has been to do our utmost toward giving the young people of
our day the opportunity to have a good life here, and a far better
life hereafter. There has never been a time when so much interest
was shown in the welfare of our young people. We see teeming Sunday
Schools, busy vacation Bible schools, active child evangelism
organizations, and the most zealous effort to educate children ever
mounted by the people of any society, Yet with all this sincere and
well-directed effort, one of the most important things of all has
not been available until now - the Bible in a language the child
can read and understand. Now for the first time in history these
hard-working, loving people have a textbook from which to teach
these young learners both grace and knowledge - THE CHILDREN'S KING
JAMES BIBLE. Why must they have the Bible in their own language? Do
we not go to great expense in our grade schools to provide
textbooks which will teach our youth what they need to know quickly
and fully? Do we give them textbooks in adult language? Of course
not The what about the Book of books? What about the knowledge of
God? Shall we continue to teach the most important subject of all,
in language the children do not understand? What teacher wants to
teach from a book which the children cannot even read for
themselves? But in this age of personal choice let the child tell
you for themselves if they prefer to learn the "words of life" in
language they can neither pronounce nor read nor understand. Do not
think that our children desire to be deprived of love, peace, joy,
kindness, goodness, faith and everlasting life No indeed, they want
to live life at its fullest. Anyone who has ever looked into their
intent, eager young faces can tell you that they thirst for
knowledge - and they drink it in when they are taught in language
they can understand. Of course, there is no greater knowledge, no
more desirable wisdom, no sweeter joy than that of our God and
Savior Jesus Christ. Jay P. Green, Sr. (1918-2008) is Translator
and Editor of The Interlinear Hebrew-Greek-English Bible and the
translator of the Modern King James Version of the Holy Bible, The
Teenage Version of the Holy Bible, and the Literal translation of
the Holy Bible. He has written numerous books on textual criticism.
