Kyle McCarter published by Fortress Press, 1986). Ancient Greek manuscripts had not yet been uncovered. Aleph, a fourth century AD codex, was discovered in 1859 by Tischendorf in the monastery of St. Catharine at Mt. Sinai. Codex Vaticanus from fourth century AD at the great Vatican Library at Rome was not made available until a photographic facsimile was published in 1889-90.(See The Text of the New Testament By Bruce Metzger published by Oxford University Press, 1964).
Where did the NIV translators use the Dead Sea Scrolls? It certainly wasn't in Isaiah. The DSS version of Isaiah is quite different than what is in the KJV or the NIV. No, they used the same Masoretic Text for the Old Testament that the translators of the KJV used.

There is the "Wicked Bible" edition of the KJV where "not" is omitted from the seventh commandment saying, "thou shalt commit adultery." William Kilburne in 1659 found 20,000 errors in six different KJV's. In 1701 Bishop Lloyd added the chronology of Bishop Ussher. Even today there are differences between the KJV published by Oxford, Cambridge, and Nelson publishers (See The English Bible from KJV to NIV: A History and Evaluation by Jack P. Lewis, published by Baker, 1981).
That somehow proves that the KJV isn't the best translation?

The Apocrypha has never been considered canon. Another non-issue.

Sorry, but the NIV writers have the same names in their Greek sources. They are the ones who have decided that a unicorn is actually a rhinoceros. A large fish is actually a whale. They are the ones injecting their agendas into the Word of God to make it sound more scientific.

That is an out and out lie. Greek mythology called a drakon a dragon, a hydra or a chimera.
