Of course, the KJV has a lot of differences with earlier sources as well.  http://www.bl.uk/onlinegallery/sacredtex...sinai.html  
The Sinai Bible was created in the 4th century, and may have been the 1st true book. (bound as a codex, instead of a scroll)  
It is written in beautiful, readable Greek, and is prized for being the oldest complete copy of the New Testament.  -- If, by complete,
one means that it contains all of the known current books of the New Testament.  It actually contains two books that are not now included.
It also does not include any resurrection stories.

I'm always amazed that people can claim that an "authentic" Bible exists at all.
That looks like a fake.  Isn't it written in modern Greek?

Apparently it's legit - - the "New Testament" is written in Greek vernacular of the period - - something referred to as "koine".  The "Old Testament" (Septuagint) is an older form . . .    here is the Codex Sinaiticus website: http://codexsinaiticus.org/en/codex/   I'd be interested to know what you think.  My interest is in its age, and the differences with our version.
