ITALIC TYPE IN THE REVISED VERSION. Appendix 7 To The Companion Bible. | ||
---|---|---|
The Revisers
ill-advisedly decided that
"all such words,
now printed in italics,
as are plainly implied
in the Hebrew,
and necessary in English,
be printed in common
type."
One of
the consequences of this
decision is that the verb
"to be" is not
distinguished from the verb
|
"to become",
so that the lessons
conveyed by the
Authorized Version
"was" and
"was"
in Genesis
1:2;
3
and
4;
9
and
10;
11
and
12,
are lost.
See the
notes on
Genesis
1:2.

general uses of various
types in the English Bible
