The paperback book gives you three (3) unique views of Tyndale’s Jonah, which he published in 1531.
View 1: A modern-spelling edition of Tyndale’s Bible text of Jonah.
View 2: A facsimile of the 16th-century Bible text of Jonah as published by Tyndale in 1531.
View 3: A transcription of the facsimile in modern typeface but with the original 16th-century spelling.

Tyndale’s translation of Jonah (discovered in 1861) was nearly lost to posterity. In 1863, English Bible scholar, Francis Fry published a book containing a facsimile of this rare work from Tyndale. Fry’s 1863 publication is the source for View 2 of Tyndale’s Jonah found in the paperback book.

There is something sobering in seeing this facsimile. One gets to glimpse — via Francis Fry’s lithographs — the very text of Jonah which Tyndale received from his 16th-century print shop. Tyndale was putting his life in danger to bring the Bible in English to his countrymen.

If any of you decide to buy either version of the book (paperback or audiobook) and enjoy it, we would really appreciate if you let others know about it, so they can enjoy it, too. We would appreciate your feedback in our comments section, as well!

Thanks!
