But the result of that assumption is the doubt that is placed on many of the passages in the New Testament. Some of the later version have still followed the lead of the Revised Standard Version but have relied on more scholarship that has shown that assumption to be too simplistic. I don't think that any Bible translations have replaced the King James Version. Russell Anderson dadla-a!russ
