King James Version

[Guest guest]

Hare Krishna.

 

*Bible Confusion*

 

The little girl was sitting with her grandmother, who had presented her

with her first little children's Bible, in an easy-to-read translation,

when she was very young.

 

Now, a decade or so later, the elderly lady was ready to spend a few

sweet moments handing down the big old family Bible, in the time-honored

King James Version, to her only grandchild.

 

Understandably excited, the youngster was asking a number of questions,

both about the family members whose births and deaths were recorded

therein, and about various aspects of the Scriptures themselves.

 

Her grandmother was endeavoring to answer all the child's questions in

terms she could understand, but the one that stopped her cold was this

sincere inquiry:

 

"Which Virgin was the mother of Jesus? Was it the Virgin Mary, or the

King James virgin?"

 

Hare Krishna --
