This paper aims at studying connection used in the Bible of king Ja mes 1611 to examine how far coordination and subordination are used. Only the first ten chapters are tested of the Bible duc to the bulky size. The analysis of the data goes along the same lines adopted by Quirk et al., 1972 limiting the attention to clause level. Coordination and subordination phrase, word and morpheme levels fall outside the scope of the present paper. The study concludes with the preference of coordination to subordination due to the following points : 1- Simple style and structure. 2- The influence of the source language. 3- Language change ability.
