What are some Old Testament prophecies that blew your mind when you heard them?
Zechariah prophesying the exact amount of money Judas was paid to betray Christ AND prophesying what would be done with the money afterward is nothing short of God-inspired.

The KJVs that Bearing Precious Seed publishes are PCE. This is their website... https://www.bpsmilford.org/store If you want a cheap no nonsense KJV with nothing but the text, this is the place to go.
Just kidding apparently. They are NOT PCE. My BPS KJV passed the 12 verse purity test, but I checked Isaiah 9:6 and it spells Counceller with o instead of an e like it is in my CBP KJV.
If someone else reading this has a BPS KJV please go to this page and test your Bible...

If it scores a 12/12, go here and check some of the other differences...

I checked again. My Bearing Precious Seed KJV passes the 12 verse PCE test but is NOT a PCE. It spells "Counceller" with an "o" in Isaiah 9:6. I checked a few other verses and it appears that the BPS spells "counceller" with an "o" everywhere else as well.
I would still recommend BPS because their Bibles are amazing for the price. They are not PCE though.

There's been some recent discussion on the Pure Cambridge Edition of the KJV, and I am inclined to believe that it is the definitive KJV edition. I just finished converting my Thomas Nelson KJV into a PCE. On the first run through (and recent checks after…
Did a second PCE purity test run through in my Thomas Nelson KJV, not the 12 verse test, but the 541 verse test. I have found that my Thomas Nelson KJV (which scored a 6/12 on the 12 verse PCE test) has a total of 214 differences from the Pure Cambridge Edition. The Bible Protector website notes a total of 541 differences in various KJV editions, which means my Thomas Nelson KJV's final score on the 541 verse purity test is 327/541, or ~64%. I have made a note on each of the 214 differences in my KJV, so now it scores a 541/541.

I will again preface that these differences are miniscule and they don't actually affect core doctrine. Most of the differences are spelling. Some of the differences however might need to be considered in the rare case that you are in an obscure study of a certain passage, but they aren't to split fellowship over by any stretch of the imagination. To make a fuss about these differences is just dumb. If you don't have a PCE KJV you're missing out on literally almost nothing.

This is my current stance: if you are a layman don't worry about whether or not your KJV is a PCE. But if you plan on seriously studying the word of God extensively like a maniac, get a PCE. I recommend from Church Bible Publishers.
And for those of you wondering why I was masochistic enough to do this, I only did it because my Thomas Nelson KJV is my darling. It is the second Bible I ever owned and it was the one I molded my entire being to. I know where everything is on the page and it has all my notes and slobber in it. I tried replacing it with a CBP Bible but I felt sad, it just wasn't the same. Unless my Bible falls apart on me I will never replace it.
This might sound insane but I haven't been able to find anyone discussing this on the internet, likely because either it is a hard thing to search for or it is completely impossible to do. But say you take apart a Bible so you only have the text block and want to modify the page dimensions. Can the margins of a piece of paper be extended? Can you turn a 16x9 piece of paper into a 20x11 piece of paper?
I don't mean printing out a new text block with these dimensions, I mean take an already printed text block and merging more margin space to it.
