God’s Secretaries: The Making of the King James Bible by Adam Nicolson EPUB 

A net
of complex currents flowed across Jacobean England. This was the England of Shakespeare, Jonson, and Bacon; the
Gunpowder Plot; the worst outbreak of the plague England had ever seen; arcadian landscapes; murderous, toxic slums;
and, above all, sometimes overwhelming religious passion. Jacobean England was both more godly and less godly than it
had ever been, and the entire culture was drawn taut between the polarities. 

This was the world that created
the King James Bible. It is the greatest work of English prose ever written, and it is no coincidence that the
translation was made at the moment “Englishness” and the English language had come into its first passionate
maturity. Boisterous, elegant, subtle, majestic, finely nuanced, sonorous, and musical, the English of Jacobean England
has a more encompassing idea of its own reach and scope than any before or since. It is a form of the language that
drips with potency and sensitivity. The age, with all its conflicts, explains the book. 

The sponsor and
guide of the whole Bible project was the king himself, the brilliant, ugly, and profoundly peace-loving James the Sixth
of Scotland and First of England. Trained almost from birth to manage the rivalries of political factions at home, James
saw in England the chance for a sort of irenic Eden over which the new translation of the Bible was to preside. It was
to be a Bible for everyone, and as God’s lieutenant on earth, he would use it to unify his kingdom. The dream of
Jacobean peace, guaranteed by an elision of royal power and divine glory, lies behind a Bible of extraordinary grace and
everlasting literary power. 

Adam Nicolson is the author of Seamanship, God’s Secretaries, and Seize
the Fire. He has won both the Somerset Maugham and William Heinemann awards, and he lives with his family at
Sissinghurst Castle in England.
