The membership of this blog is made up of evangelicals involved in academic study of textual criticism. Those with appropriate expertise and theological convictions who wish to be considered for membership should contact Peter Head or Tommy Wasserman. Those applying for membership must indicate that they have read either the OT or the NT in its original language(s), should be actively involved in text-critical research, and should be already contributing to the blog through comments. They should give e-mail details of an academic and a pastoral referee, a summary of their academic and/or ministry involvement, a statement of their doctrinal commitment (which may be by reference to various classic evangelical statements of faith, e.g. 39 Articles, Westminster Confession), and an indication of their area of interest within textual criticism. Non-members who wish to comment are not expected to be evangelical, but they are requested to respect the blog's ethos.

Here is a link that contains the modern spelling of the marginalia.

Excellent, thanks.
The example given does not inspire much confidence:
"Genesis 25:18 he did eat of his venison: Heb. venison was in is mouth"
Other than getting the verse reference wrong, and modernly spelling "his" as "is," it's a good example . . .
"Revelation 20:13 hell: Or, hell [obviously a typo in 1611]"
This was subsequently corrected to, "Or, the grave"
Mark 7:3 oft: Or, diligently, in the Original, with the fist, Theophylact, up to the elbow
This is very interesting note, for a couple of reasons:
1. It's the only one (at least in the NT) where a conjecture is identified as such;
2. It's the only one with a patristic reference.
Oops, not quite.
Acts 13:18 suffered: Gr. etropophoresen as a nurse beareth or feedeth her child, Deut. 1.31. 2. Macc 7.27. according to the Sept. and so Chrysost.
I would note that the freely downloadable Online Bible software program has the AV marginals (with correct spelling).
Searchable? No. But at
http://www.bibles-online.net/
you can view page-images of a 1611 KJV, as well as other historically significant Bibles.
Yours in Christ,
