This is a list of Bible verses and phrases that are present in the King James Version but absent from most bible translations completed after 1881 which are based upon the corrupt Alexandrian text-type|.

Bart D. Ehrman, an agnostic Biblical scholar and critic, falsly claims that some of the most known verses were not part of the original text of the New Testament. "These scribal additions are often found in late medieval manuscripts of the New Testament, but not in the manuscripts of the earlier centuries," he adds. And because the King James Bible is based on later manuscripts, such verses "became part of the Bible traditon in English-speaking lands."<ref name="MisJ">Ehrman, Bart D..
