Scrivener in the 19th century clearly demonstrated that the printed TR
edition closest to the KJV English text was that of Beza 1598.  The
Trinitarian Bible Society today reprints Scrivener's reconstructed text
purportedly underlying the KJV from Scrivener's 1894 edition.
Unfortunately, the TBS edition left out the original appendix which
detailed all the differences between the artificial 1894 reconstruction
and the actual 1598 Beza edition.
