So the changes can be large (new translation) or small (updates). * For example, the Greek text behind the translations also gets revised (e.g., the Greek New Testament “Novum Testamentum Graece” editions) and that influences English editions.

Why: Between 1611 and 1881, archaeologists discovered older Greek manuscripts (not known to KJV translators), especially: * Codex Sinaiticus (found 1844) * Codex Vaticanus (in Vatican Library) These earlier manuscripts lacked certain verses that the KJV included (which came from later copies of the Greek New Testament — “Textus Receptus”). So the 1881 Revised Version (RV) removed or footnoted many of these verses. #### | | | |[[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/690f6421-7158-8006-97d9-597d739cc5c7&veaction=edit§ion=15 "Edit section: | | | |") | [edit source](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/690f6421-7158-8006-97d9-597d739cc5c7&action=edit§ion=15 "Edit section's source code: | | | |")] | --- | --- | --- | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ✅ These removals account for the biggest textual differences in history.
