Appendix A.] “Wrong readings of the Bible of 1611 amended in later editions.”
Catalogue of the variations from the original edition of the Authorized Version of the Holy Bible (1611), which, being found in all modern editions, have been retained in the Cambridge Paragraph Bible. Obvious misprints and the peculiar orthography of the original are excluded, and the dates annexed are those of the editions in which the several variations originated, so far as these can be ascertained.

1 Heb. JEHOVAH. The words “Lord” and “God” are always intended to be printed in small capitals in the Authorized Version, when they are employed to translate that Holy Name. Adonai Jehovah is represented by “LORD GOD” about a hundred times in Ezekiel alone, and Jehovah Adonai by “LORD God” only in Hab. Iii. 19, itself corrected (perhaps wrongly) in the Cambridge folio of 1629. See Appendix B II. on Ps. xliv. 23.
2 In some places this bold archaism (see above, p. 111) is retained in the text of the Cambridge Paragraph bible, e.g. Ezek. xliii. 27; 2 Esdr. vii. 68; I Macc. xiii. 51; 2 Macc. xi. 21; but not in I Kin. vi. 1; xvi. 8, 23.
