When God Spoke English: The Making of the King James Bible (2013) Documentary on Free Online Video

In this documentary, the BBC provides an in-depth history of what might be the greatest work in English Literature, the King James Bible. Published in 1611, the KJV Bible was conceived during a period of great upheaval in British history, when stress-lines between the Post-reformation Catholic Church, King James' monarchy, and a small, but vocal Puritan minority were starting to worsen. One of King James' hopes with a new English translation of the Bible was to bring about a more peaceful and balanced society. What resulted was a work of profound metaphorical, technical, and artistic achievement; the product of a team of translators working together to create a Bible that came to represent the mind of England itself.
