Codex Sinaiticus & Vaticanus - Corruption in the KJV Bible books

Codex Vaticanus, a manuscript dated 325-350 AD, contains the earliest complete copy of the New Testament Bible.

The table below lists the King James Bible (KJV) books that conflict with the relatively recent Biblical manuscript discoveries, the Codex Sinaiticus and Codex Vaticanus.

Vaticanus Oldest Bible
Codex Vaticanus is regarded as the oldest extant manuscript of the Greek Bible dated to 325-350 AD. Vaticanus is named after its place of conservation in the Vatican Library. In the 19th century, Bible scholars studying the Codex Vaticanus realized the texts differed significantly from the Latin Vulgate ('Textus Receptus'). Vaticanus may have been one of the 50 Bibles commissioned by Emperor Constantine in 331 AD. W Codex_Vaticanus

Sinaiticus Old Bible
Codex Sinaiticus is an ancient, handwritten copy of the Greek Bible dated to 330-360 AD. Discovered in 1850 by Constantin von Tischendorf, a German evolutionist theologian, at St. Catherine's Monastery at Mount Sinai. Sinaiticus is an Alexandrian text-type manuscript written on parchment. Currently stored in the British Library, London. Sinaiticus is an invaluable resource for critical studies of biblical text. Codex Sinaiticus may have been one of the 50 Bibles commissioned by Emperor Constantine in 331 AD. W Codex_Sinaiticus

King James (KJV) Popular
Published in 1611 by the Church of England, the King James Bible (KJV) is an English translation of the Christian Bible. Under King James I, 47 translators used the Textus Receptus ('Majority text') manuscripts for their English Bible. Since 1611, older, more accurate Bible manuscripts have been discovered; the Codex Sinaiticus and Vaticanus. The books of the King James Version include the 39 books of the Old Testament, an intertestamental section containing 14 books of the Apocrypha, and the 27 books of the New Testament.

Summary

The Codex Sinaiticus and Vaticanus are the oldest, complete Bibles available today.

When compared to the King James (KJV) bible, or any other Bible version, many conflicting and 'confusing' attestations and omissions are presented.

When, why, where or how were entire Bible books added and removed from God's Scripture?

It is beyond the scope of this article to explore the above question. Biblical scholarship documents and acknowledges the above book changes.
