FEATURED HISTORIC BIBLE: Tyndale's New Testament
1534 Edition in Modern Spelling with an introduction by David Daniel
Product Description
Printed in Germany in 1534 and smuggled into England for distribution, Tyndale`s masterly translation of the New Testament outraged the clerical establishment by giving the laity direct access to the word of God for the first time. Despite its suppression, it ultimately formed the basis of all English bibles-including much of the King James Version-until after the Second World War. Now for the first time Tyndale`s translation is published in modern spelling so that this remarkable work of English prose by one of the great geniuses of his age is available to today`s reader.
