White`s Dictionary of the King James Language is like traveling back in time and looking over the shoulder of the translators of our 1611 version. You will begin to understand the English Language of 1611 as never before! There is no other professional work like it on the market.


This handsome multi-volume set was designed for those who love to read and study the King James Bible. No Church, Bible School, Library or Christian home should be without a copy of White`s Dictionary of the King James Language.

What are the different meanings of:

  • thou, thee, thine, thy?
  • ye, you, your?
  • me, my, mine?

Can you explain the difference between:

  • example and ensample?
  • alway and always?
  • near and nigh?

It’s like traveling back in time and looking over the shoulder of the translators!

A valuable tool for the serious student of the Bible.
