Publisher's summary

In a voice as rich as it is recognized, James Earl Jones lends his award-winning acting and iconic narrative talents to the King James Version of the Holy Bible’s New Testament. This newly updated recording from Topics Media Group has had the previous edition’s music background score removed entirely to allow the listener to more easily hear and appreciate the Scripture. 

This skilled and resonating interpretation by Mr. Jones has been hailed as one of the greatest spoken-word New Testament recordings of all-time. With more than a half a million copies sold to date, this audio masterwork is certain to soothe, satisfy, and inspire.

Errors were not corrected

I love James Earl Jones. The man has an amazing voice. I also love listening to him read scripture as it is very soothing. As someone who knows the King James Bible, I did hear some uncorrected errors.

James Earl Jones

If you want to listen to the bible, why would you choose anyone other than James Earl Jones as a narrator. Legendary voice.
