There are certainly some obsolete words, but it was the most read book in
English until fairly recently, so its influence (on the language) was
immense.
It is still the only version in English that can be read with pleasure.
IMHO.

Gasp! 12 years at school, compulsory theology course. Only in a
different language :-)))
However, I am not sure the Bible is a good grammar companion; isn't it
full of thys, thines and other obsolete species? Or has it been
modernised?
