What did Constantine have to do with King James?

Answer 1

Nothing really - Constantine was a 4th century Italian ruler, and King James 1 was a 17th century English ruler. The only thing they had in common was that they were both rulers who allowed greater freedom of worship for Christians by setting up State religions: Constantine approved Christianity as a now-lawful state religion, which in Italy it became known as Roman Catholicism, and James 1 of England discouraged Roman Catholicism and set up what became the Church of England .

Answer 2

Constantine was an emperor in the Roman Empire known for adopting Christianity, while King James was a monarch of England in the early 17th century who authorized the translation of the King James Bible. Their main connection is that both played significant roles in the history of Christianity, with Constantine shaping its early development and King James contributing to the spread of a standardized English Bible.
