The Revised Version (British and American) makes frequent changes, such as "for," "as for," "from," "about," for "concerning"; "concerning" instead of "for," "of," "over," "in," "against," etc. Some of the other changes are, "unto that which is good" for "concerning" (Romans 16:19 ), "concerning" instead of "because of" (Jeremiah 23:9 ), for "the miracle of" (Mark 6:52 ); for "with" (Mark 10:41 ), for "of the Lord" (Acts 18:25 ), "concerning Jesus" (diferent text), "by way of disparagement" (2 Corinthians 11:21 ), instead of "concerning reproach"; "Why askest thou me concerning that which is good?" (Matthew 19:17 ) instead of "Why callest thou me good?" (different text; see the Revised Version, margin).
