Review: Laurence M. Vance’s Archaic Words and the Authorized Version

“I hope to show that Laurence M. Vance’s book, Archaic Words and the Authorized Version is simply and fundamentally and clearly wrong, gloriously wrong, infamously wrong, precisely at the point of its central thesis.” - Mark Ward

I really appreciate Mark’s patient and diligent work responding to KJVO arguments. But my prediction is that much of his work will fall on deaf ears and only the already-convinced will listen. Anyone who read Vance’s book and was convinced by it was convinced because it confirmed their bias.
