Description
Book SynopsisWilliam Tyndale's 16th-century translation of the New Testament into English from its original Greek resulted in his being hunted down and burnt at the stake for blasphemy. This work of pioneering scholarship formed the basis of all subsequent bibles until after World War I.
Trade Review"This volume deserves wide circulation."—Library Journal
"Amid the plethora of contemporary English translations, Tyndale's still stands out as powerfully and vigorously attractive."—ADRIS Newsletter
"Tyndale's prose is not only refreshing for us in reading such a distanced and over-used passage such as 1 Cor.13, but as material read out loud, and better, to learn by heart, it could stock heart and mind in a valuable way."—Ann Loades, Listener
"For Dr. Daniell, Tyndale rather than the Authorised Version is the true source of the English Bible. Anyone can now test this claim for themselves by reading this splendid book."—Joseph Robinson, Church Times
"Daniell [provides a] very fine Introduction to this beautiful volume."—Donald Coggan, Theology
“Tyndale's translation of the first five books of the Old Testament is a monument to faith, courage and determination.”—Loyd Grossman,
