Skills of KJB Translators Part 1: KJB Translator John Bois literally read the Bible in Hebrew by himself by the time he was 6 years old and he also was one of the 12 final revisors of the KJB! The scholarship of the KJB Translators was very talented yet ignored by critics who wnated to downplay and attack the KJB:
"JOHN BOIS
This devoted scholar was a native of Nettle-stead, in Suffolk, where he was born January 3rd, 1560. His father William Bois, a convert from papistry, was a pious minister, and a very learned man; and at the time of his death, was Rector of West Stowe. His mother, Mirable Poolye, was a pious woman, and a great reader of the Bible in the older translations. He was the only child that grew up. He was carefully taught by his father; and at the age of Jive years, he had read the Bible in Hebrew. By the time he was six years old, he not only wrote Hebrew legibly, but in a fair and elegant character. ... When the work had been carried through the first stage, he was one of the twelve delegates sent, two from each of the companies, to make the final revision of the work at Stationersβ Hall, in London. This occupied nine months,"
