Description
William Tyndale was a pioneering figure in the history of the English language and the translation of the Bible. In this classic book, James J. Ellis takes readers on a journey through the life and work of this influential 16th-century scholar.
Tyndale is best known for his translation of the Bible into English, an act that was considered heretical at the time. He believed that the scriptures should be accessible to everyone, not just those who could read Latin. Despite facing intense opposition from the church and the authorities, Tyndale persisted in his mission, ultimately giving English-speaking people the gift of a Bible they could understand.
Ellis delves into the political and religious climate of the time, shedding light on Tyndale's motivations and the dangers he faced in his pursuit of his vision. Drawing on extensive research and engaging storytelling, Ellis brings to life the story of a man who had a profound impact on the English language and the religious landscape of his time.
This classic book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the English language, the Reformation, or the profound impact of the Bible on Western civilization.
