Answer 1

Option B, it was accessible to the general public, is the right answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the year 1604 James I, the King of England commissioned a new translation of the Bible. The main aim of this translation was to gain some disturbing religious variations in his kingdom and solidify his leadership.
