Is this a decent enough edition of the bible? I'd rather not get some faux luxury pleather covered thing just to read it for literary purposes.

Is this a good version of the Bible to read as literature?

Hey /lit/, currently preparing to go and study English Lit. at Uni and have been recommended to read parts of the King James Bible by my English teacher. Can you guys give me some suggestions as to the most important books to read, in regards to their impact and how referenced they are in classic/modern literature? Not religious btw, so all I've got at the moment is reading Genesis and Exodus, but apart from that I'm clueless.

To anyone who has this edition of the KJV,

Does it retain the original spelling and language (i.e. 'thees' and 'thous')?

How do you like it overall? Particularly in comparison to other translations you have read.
