	Since 1698, the University Press at Cambridge has been managed by eighteen [[Cambridge University Press\|‘Syndics’]]. From the mid-1730s, the Syndics’ stated ambition was to “serve the Public with a more beautiful and correct Edition [of the Bible] than can easily be found.” When the first ‘Inspector of the Press,’ Cornelius Crownfield retired in 1740, he was succeeded by [[Joseph Bentham (printer)\|Joseph Bentham]], as the University’s Inspector of the Press (28 March 1740) and Printer to the University (14 December 1740).

	Parris’s first edition of the [[King James Version\|Bible]] was published by [[Joseph Bentham (printer)\|Bentham]] in 1743. At first, the changes Parris made were minor, but not insignificant. For example, his 1743 edition (and all subsequent editions) removed the comma that in the 1611 edition appears after “God” in the phrase ‘and the glorious appearing of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ’ ([[Titus 2:13]]); so emphasizing the co-equality of God and our Saviour in orthodox [[Trinitarianism]]. This edition was reprinted in 1747 and 1752, but Parris made substantial further alterations for the prolonged 1756-58 edition. Parris’s revision of the text culminated a little before his death in the 1760 octavo edition. This was reprinted without further changes in a 1762 folio edition, printed by Joseph Bentham, and the celebrated John Baskerville folio edition of 1763. In 1769, [[Benjamin Blayney]] produced an edition in Oxford, but with few changes from Parris’s 1760 edition, which remains the principal template for modern editions of the [[King James Version\|KJV]] Bible.<sup>[]</sup>		Parris’s first edition of the [[King James Version\|Bible]] was published by [[Joseph Bentham (printer)\|Bentham]] in 1743.
