Nobody is saying that various editions of the Bible were published for political reasons. However the main text of all the Catholic , Protestant and Orthodox bibles are the same. The only major change is that Protestant left out seven books of the Catholic Old Testament because they were not in the current Jewish Bible.


The Reformation was not started by the King of England but by Martin Luther and John Calvin. Political heads like King Henry 8, queen Elizabeth 1 and King James  back these men against the Catholic leaders who were supported by the Kings of France etc. However they did not write the Bible. The original Bible was written in the early centuries and approved by the Catholic Church in the 4th century
