Category: Archaic Words in the King James Bible

We are repeatedly told about all the archaic words in the King James Bible.  Here again we have a business using an archaic word from the King James Bible to name its business.  Amana makes refrigerators, ovens, freezers, microwaves, and other kitchen products.  I guess these large corporations will never learn to not use archaic King James Bible words as the name of their company.

Song of Solomon 4:8 (KJV) ¶ Come with me from Lebanon, my spouse, with me from Lebanon: look from the top of Amana, from the top of Shenir and Hermon, from the lions’ dens, from the mountains of the leopards.

We are told that the King James Bible is full of archaic words that no one can understand.  Therefore we all need to abandon the King James Bible and buy a new version like a NKJV, NIV, NASV, or ESV.  We have found a number of these so-called archaic words in use on the internet.  A lot of these archaic words are the names of businesses.  It is strange that businesses would want to use archaic words from the King James Bible to name their business.  Well maybe these words are not so archaic.  Someone does not like the King James Bible.

Exodus 30:25 (KJV) And thou shalt make it an oil of holy ointment, an ointment compound after the art of the apothecary: it shall be an holy anointing oil.

The Apothecary Shoppe in Tulsa, Oklahoma are not very smart using a archaic King James Bible word to name their pharmacy business.  They probably don’t have much business since most people would not know that the Apothecary Shoppe is a pharmacy.

The producers of Rawhide are sure mean people using an archaic word like apothecary that none of their viewers would understand in 1959.
