When doing a word search using the KJV, you may experience a problem looking for your specific word. We use the 1769 Edition of the King James Version. Because of this, there are some minor spelling variations from more recent editions of the King James Version.
The following table compares various spellings from contemporary versions of the KJV with the 1769 edition (the one used on the BLB) and the 1611 edition (the first edition):

| always | alway | alway | Job 7:16 |
| astonished | astonied | astonied | Job 17:8 |

You may also notice alternate spellings of the same name. This is especially the case when a name appears in both Old and New Testaments; because one spelling is based upon Hebrew and another is based upon Greek, there can be subtle differences. Some examples of these differences include the following names:
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
