Book • 2018
Mark Ward's 'Authorized' examines the history, philology, and cultural influence of the King James Version while critiquing the King James Only movement.
Ward combines scholarship, pastoral concern, and pastoral tone to show where KJV-only arguments fail and where appreciation for the KJV remains appropriate.
He documents examples of archaic words and false friends that hinder modern understanding and offers guidance for reading and preserving access to Scripture.
The book argues for multiple contemporary translations and for treating translation and textual issues with charity and clarity.
It is written to reach faithful Christians who hold the KJV dear while persuading them toward more readable and historically informed practices.
