Does the Bible speak about Bishops who were the successors of the Apostles in any books that can be named?
The only books of the Bible that really mention bishops are the pseudo-Pauline epistles known as 1 Timothy, 2 Timothy and Titus. New Testament scholars almost universally believe these books to have been written during the first half of the second century, and coincide with the earliest known appointments of bishops. The Epistles to Timothy portray Paul as appointing Timothy as a bishop, but of course not as his successor, and there is no mention of the bishops being appointed as direct successors of the apostles.
How did the King James Bible come about?
When James I succeeded Elizabeth in 1603, there were at least three popular versions of the Bible used in England at that time: The Geneva Bible, the Great Bible and the Bishop's Bible. He instructed the translators to produce a new Bible, following the ordinary Bible read in the Church, the Bishops' Bible, with as little alteration as the original would permit.
