King James of England and Scotland commissioned the version, published in 1611. It is the most widely published and most influential version of the Bible.KJV was several centuries after Jesus, and translated from at least two earlier versions, Greek and Latin IIRC.
I don't recall Jesus ever giving his endorsement to KJV.
Catholics and Orthodox might also contest that.
