Did William Shakespeare write the King James version of the Bible?

No, he most likely did not. Many believe he did only due to the fact that the writing in the King James Bible mirrors the musical writing of Shakespeare, but William Shakespeare is not credited as one of the 40-plus translators and writers. Even though Ben Jonson accredits Shakespeare with "small Latin and less Greek," which would have made Shakespeare unqualified for the translation job, formal education for boys of his time included exhaustive lessons in Latin. Given Shakespeare's formal education, he would have been more than qualified were he chosen.Nevertheless, it is widely believed he did in fact assist a bit on the translation and writing, but his contribution would have been so minor he was left uncredited. An interesting fact is that Shakespeare was 46 years old when the King James Bible was being translated and written, and 46th word in Psalm 46 is "shake", and the 46th word from the end is "spear". This may be another reason so many believe he was involved in the translation and writing, especially on Psalm 46.There is no evidence of it.
