The first English Bible translated from the original languages

William Tyndale believed the Bible should be available in the vernacular – the common people’s speech. He famously declared, “The boy that driveth the plough shall know more of the Scripture than [an educated man].” Though forbidden by the Church to translate the New Testament into English, Tyndale’s determination resulted in its finally being printed in Germany in 1526. Smuggled into England, the Tyndale New Testament was a monumental success. The simple, direct language of many of its verses has resonated down the centuries.

William Tyndale’s legacy stems from his having translated the Scriptures in a way that made the most of the emerging English tongue. Bible collectors and anyone interested in the history of the English Bible will treasure this unique volume.

William Tyndale’s 1534 translation of the New Testament into English from the original Greek ultimately led to his being hunted down and burnt at the stake for blasphemy. This astounding work of pioneering scholarship formed the basis of subsequent English Bibles until after the Second World War and was the version of the Bible used by some of our greatest poets. By the twentieth century, however, it had become virtually unknown because of its suppression for political reasons and its difficult sixteenth-century spelling. This edition-published in modern spelling, as the modern book it once was-makes this masterly work of English prose by one of the greatest geniuses of the age accessible to today’s reader.

This volume does NOT contain the entire OT, but only the Pentateuch of 1530, Joshua to 2 Chronicles of 1537, and Jonah (about 1531). The spelling in the texts has been modernized to show them as the modern productions they once were. Tyndale’s introductions and marginal notes are also included. David Daniell’s introduction explores Tyndale’s astonishing achievement in singlehandedly turning the Hebrew into English of great variety, force and beauty. In the 1530’s Tyndale translated the first fourteen books of the OT into English from the original Hebrew, a translation that laid the foundation of all subsequent English Bibles, including the Authorized Version (KJV) of 1611. Tyndale was the first to translate the Hebrew Bible into English–the first in fact to translate anything from Hebrew into English. At the time, the language was virtually unknown in England. The publication of Tyndale’s OT outraged the clerical establishment by giving people access to the Bible in their own language. Tyndale was hunted down and subsequently burned at the stake for blasphemy.

Celebrating the 400^th anniversary of the 1611 King James Version Bible
For over 400 years, the Authorized Version of the Bible—popularly known as the King James Version—has been beloved for its majestic phrasing and stately cadences. No other book has so profoundly influenced our language and our theology.

Over time, however, the text has suffered subtle and occasionally troublesome alterations. This attractive edition preserves the original 1611 edition. Word for word and page for page, the text with its original marginal notes, preface (“The Translators to the Reader”), and other introductory material appear as they first did. The sole concession to modernity is a far more readable roman typeface set by nineteenth-century master printers. Elegantly bound with old-world quality craftsmanship, this is the perfect edition of the incomparable King James Version for study and for sheer enjoyment.

Features

• Word-for-word facsimile of the original 1611 Authorized Version
• Handsome page design with clearer modern type and decorative initials is convenient to read and reference
• The text is complete with the Apocrypha, and the original preface and translators’ notes. Alfred Pollard’s classic essay on pre-1611 English translations and the history of the Authorized Version is also included.
• Ribbon marker
• Presentation page
• 7-point text size
• 8.50″ x 5.50″ x 1.25″

Pastor John Rogers assembled in 1537 a volume that contained, for the first time as part of a complete Bible, all of William Tyndale’s translation work, the 1534 New Testament, the Pentateuch, and the nine historical books, ending with 2 Chronicles. Where there were gaps in Tyndale’s work, Rogers used that of Miles Coverdale (1535).

The Geneva Bible was a monumental achievement in the history of Protestant Bible translation. Born in a time of religious and political upheaval it helped foster scripture literacy among the common people of England.

The first English Bible to be fully translated from the original languages, the Geneva Bible was the product of some of the finest biblical scholars of its day. It was the first to feature many innovations in the field of Bible publishing:

• Text printed in readable roman type
• Division of the text into numbered verses
• Italic type used for words not in the original languages
• Marks placed over the accented syllables to aid in pronouncing proper names
• Extensive textual and explanatory commentary placed in the margins
• Words/phrases displayed at the heads of pages to promote scripture memorization
• Maps and woodcuts illustrating biblical scenes included
• Sold in a variety of sizes so many people could afford a household Bible

English settlers that voyaged to the New World favored the Geneva Bible. It is probable that the Geneva Bible came to America in 1607 and was used in the Jamestown colony. Thirteen years later the Pilgrims brought it with them on the Mayflower’s perilous voyage to religious freedom.

Features:

• Facsimile of the University of Wisconsin Press edition of the 1560 Geneva Bible
• Features clear, legible type throughout (marginal commentary is in smaller type)
• Complete, original marginal commentary, maps and woodcut illustrations
• Authoritative introduction to the Geneva Bible by Lloyd E. Berry
