so when towards the end of the conference two puritans suggested that a new translation of the bible be produced to unify better the anglican church in england and scotland, james embraced the idea. he could not only be rid of those inconvenient annotations, but he could have greater influence on the translation of the bible as a whole. he commissioned and chartered a new translation of the bible which would eventually become the most famous version of the bible in the history of the english language. originally known as the "authorized version" to be read in churches, the new bible would come to bear his name as the so-called king james bible or king james version (kjv). the first and early editions of the king james bible from 1611 and the first few decades thereafter lack annotations, unlike nearly all editions of the geneva bible up until that time. initially, the king james version did not sell well and competed with the geneva bible. shortly after the first edition of the kjv, king james banned the printing of new editions of the geneva bible to further entrench his version. however, robert barker continued to print geneva bibles even after the ban, placing the erroneous date 1599 on new copies of genevas which were actually printed circa 1616 to 1625.
