PRESS RELEASE
March 21, 2011
TEXAS - No Bible occupies a position in the heart of Christianity like that of the King James Version. It (2011) marks its 400th anniversary this year, and in celebration of that milestone, Baylor University will present a three-day international conference in which more than 30 noted scholars of religion will examine the Bible’s history and influence on religion, politics and culture. Baylor also will host a free exhibition of more than 100 items — among them a Dead Sea Scroll, an illustrated Gutenberg Bible and a text handwritten by King Henry VIII about the sacraments — on loan from the Oklahoma-based Green Collection.
