What We Should Take Into Acount
The making of the King James Bible was coming to an end and after a long and hard effort the fifty translators were about to finish. All that was missing was “the binding and melting of all fifty or so translators efforts.” (pg.198). They were all expecting a well deserved reward for serving their king and their country. The only problem was that James had over done it and become ambitious. Money in England was scarce and they money he owed to the people that had so loyally served him was missing. A few people were in charge of taking the Bibles parts and “make them a single volume (p.201).” Some did their work on time but Bois was the most dedicated worker. He finished his work on time and started helping the others. This teamwork lesson is very important to realize, some people say that Colombia’s problem is people don’t work as a team and I agree. When somebody finishes early they just leave and forget about everything else and it is that attitude that has brought us to where we are right now. They King James bible shaped history it is not just a normal book in history but it has a history of its making. The problems and solutions that come with its making should be taken into account when reading the bible and the effort of these people should be noted in order to appreciate it fully.
