“To have concentrated so much on the simple word ‘and’ might seem to indicate an obsession with trivialities. I hope not because it is an important part of my purpose to demonstrate that what made the English Bible so powerful and influential an achievement was something begun by Tyndale and refined by his successors, namely a willingness to pay attention to the minutiae of biblical style.” —Gerald Hammond, The Making of the English Bible

The effect of these frequent ands in the King James Bible is to create a tremendous sense of continuity. Everything flows in sequence. The construction often shows a sense of cause and effect, as one thing produces the next, which produces the next.
