Matthew 9:17 - NASV / wineskins - KJV / bottles
Matthew 1:11 - NASV / deportation - KJV / carried away
Luke 6:22 - NASV / ostracize - KJV / separate you from their company
1 Thes. 2:18 - NASV / thwarted - KJV / hindered
1 Tim. 3:3 - NASV / pugnacious - KJV / striker
1 Tim. 3:8 - NASV / sordid - KJV / filthy
1 Tim. 6:16 - NASV / a pang - KJV / sorrows
Hebrews 7:2 - NASV / apportioned - KJV / gave
Hebrews 12:1 - NASV / encumbrance - KJV / weight
Revelation 6:8 - NASV / ashen - KJV / pale
Revelation 18:1 - NASV / illumined - KJV / lightened

Further, I find your attempt to claim that the NASV words are ‘difficult and archaic’ simply ridiculous. Every single one of those words is in my active vocabulary.

At the time being written of, no one was using the term easter. The Israeli people were not celebrating, or observing, nor did they even have the thought of Easter, niether did Herod. He was waiting for the passover to be over.
The use of the word Easter by the KJV translators was intentional, not an error or typo or mistake. But Herod was indeed not waiting until after Easter was over. He was waiting for thier passover traditional observances to be over.

Interesting choice; one which disproves your point perfectly. There was one KJV-only advocate on this forum who believed that ‘bottles’ in the KJV meant glass containers.

His stubborn insistence on the accuracy of the KJV actually hindered his ability to understand it.

Even where the words seem familiar, they may not be, as meanings have changed in the last 400 years.

There is an ongoing debate over the KJV only issue. One issue that always comes up is, "There are no major doctrinal changes from one version to the next, so what does it matter?" First of all, truth matters no matter how small of a truth you may think. Truth matters to God. He never wants his people to be persuaded out of the whole truth. See Adam and Eve. I'll post some passages found in the KJV and how those same passages differ in the new versions.

1. The doctrine of condemnation to those who walk after the flesh. There is condemnation to those believers who walk after the flesh and not after the Spirit. The bible speaks of temporal condemnation. Romans 8:1 says, "There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." Modern Translations leave out the part that says, "who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." The KJV says, as a part of having no condemnation, two things are required: We have to be in Christ Jesus, and walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. The enemy wants Christians today to justify sin instead of battling against it. So the enemy will do everything he can to give a person a water down version on His holy Word to promote the idea that there is no condemnation for not following the word of God.

Here is an example of temporal condemnation from not walking after the Spirit. The one who is condemned in the following has sinned against God.

Romans 14
15 But if thy brother be grieved with thy meat, now walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died.
16 Let not then your good be evil spoken of:
17 For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.
18 For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God, and approved of men.
19 Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another.
20 For meat destroy not the work of God. All things indeed are pure; but it is evil for that man who eateth with offence.
21 It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor any thing whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weak.
22 Hast thou faith? have it to thyself before God. Happy is he that condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth.
23 And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin.

One great thing about the KJV is that it defines itself. It’s called the first mention principle. No other version comes close.

Do you realize how many mistakes the KJV translators made in the book of Acts?

So why did The KJV translation make such a simple blunder.

Acts 12:3-4
And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.)
And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people.

Herod must have been observing a forty day Easter celebration.

A translator must translate the Koine Greek according to the meaning of the Greek word, in the time frame that the letter was written.
The context of Acts 12 demands the word 'passover' replace 'easter' in the KJV. The days of unleavened bread not the days of Easter. The text tells you that Herod is following Jewish tradition, not Christian tradition.

So in John 3:16 (KJV), what does the term "whosoever," mean? Think about it long and hard, because you said the KJV defines itself, yet here is an example where you are forced to put your own (modernized) interpretation on the term, when in fact, the KJV used it much differently.

Paps, pisseth, thee, wimples, anon, bakemeats, tabret, thou, bewray, bolled, ye, choler, agon, satyr, emerods, haply, minish, neesing, sottish, wist, wot, assay, shew, astonied, unicorn, bestead, bruit, dure, ensample, implead, knop, collups, lucre, meteyard, sith, ouches, surfeiting, trow, betimes, ague, snuffdishes, mammon, cogitations, bishoprick, durst, felloes, behove, habergeon, quaternions, ravin, surfeiting, wimples, stanched, sackbut, crisping pins.

At least you will get an education when you look up the meanings.

You lost me completely there.
So, no matter what, if the KJV says it, it's "gospel".
That's one of the silliest things I've heard in a while.

As far as the context is concerned, the koine Greek should be translated in English as “Easter” in reference to the resurrection of Christ. The “…the days of Unleavened Bread…” was already occurred meaning the Jewish Passover have already been observed when Peter was imprisoned by Herod. Acts 12:4 is a special case to differentiate the use of Passover elsewhere in the New Testament. Christ the Passover lamb has already been slain and the commemoration is the resurrection. It is said that KJB Translator did 28 times and one (1) time use of “Easter” which was carefully analyzed and adopted by the whole body of translators. Such claims of intentional or blatant error are not befitting from far more eligible translators than today’s editors. The one who translated the Book of Acts is none other than the Mathematician Henry Savile to which some claimed that KJB translators are ignoramus about the subject. Savile is also an expert in Hebrew, Greek, Latin, and French and such worthy to translate the Gospels, Acts, and Revelation. Well had someone assumed to say they were in a terrible mistake when we need to look for ourselves in a clean glass mirror.
