The Restored Name King James Version is a revision of the King James Version that systematically restores Hebrew forms of divine and personal names throughout the text. Covering the complete Bible, it works from English with Hebrew reference rather than undertaking a fresh translation from the original tongues, and its philosophy remains KJV-based, employing restored or transliterated names in place of the conventional English renderings inherited from earlier tradition. It is therefore categorized as a revision, with the King James Version of 1611 serving as both its predecessor and its base translation, placing it within the long line of English revisions that have periodically reworked that text for particular readerships. Editions of this kind belong to the wider Sacred Name movement, whose adherents prefer transliterated Hebrew forms on principle. Within this catalogue the entry is included as a completeness backstop for coverage of the English translation and revision family.
