I don’t understand why some publisher hasn’t yet extended the facsimile to the page edge (with some astute feathering) so we can feel like we’re actually reading Tyndale’s bible (not a book full of photos on Tyndale’s bible).
@@anickelsworthbiblereviews for sure, but I have never pulled the trigger on a Tyndale for this reason. Would love to see a full-colour version properly bled.
Good review of a truly great translation. I'm always glad to see Tyndale getting the attention he deserves since he really is the father of all English bibles (even the Catholic Rheims NT owes something to Tyndale, though the translators would never have admitted it). Probably my favorite edition of Tyndale is the 1536 facsimile from the Bible Museum. It's a bit pricy but it's a nice, full-sized edition and is printed rather than scanned (which I find a little distracting).
Wycliffe’s Bible is Middle English not Old English. Old English is the language spoken before the Norman Conquest. Old English is the language in which Beowulf was originally written.
Yeah I am sure it was misspoken. But that does get on me nerves when people say the KJV is old English. I always tell them it is early modern English. Old English is like you say Beowulf. It isn't even Middle English like the Wycliffe. Middle English is still marginally readable to an English speaker, but Old English is not. The KJV/Shakespeare is largely still readable to the modern English speaker.
I have Tyndale's 1534 New Testament in a paper back edition. It was published by Yale University Press in 1989. It's a modern spelling edition with an introduction by David Daniell, with all the footnotes and translator's notes. I like the format because it's in single column paragraph form and very easy to read.
Tyndale was executed by King Henry VIII, not the Roman Catholic Church. King Henry declared himself Head of the English Church in 1534. Tyndale was arrested in 1535 and burned at the stake in 1536 near Brussels. Good video other than that though!
While it was secular authorities that were behind it (the king), the RCC had a massive role to play. They functionally executed him. Similar to the Jews functionally executing Jesus while using the Romans. I’m pretty comfortable with how I worded it. I mentioned it was a combination of things.
@ sir I just recommend you look at google and research some information on the topic before you give blame to the wrong group. With your logic though you could blame any event in modern history to connection to the RCC. Because one bishop was involved lol. Again who ordered the arrest and who was the execution under order by. So I ask again stop blaming the RCC and blame who was actually to blame please.
@ a single bishop played a role. That isn’t the whole RCC. Or a massive role at that. Because was it the Pope or King Henry VIII that ordered the arrest and execution? Yet you will not admit it lol.
@ regardless of how you word it a single involved bishop doesn’t mean the whole church. That’s about the most you’ll get from the role of the RCC. Again since you refuse to admit it I will state it again. He was ordered to be arrested and executed by King Henry VIII. Sure the Catholics didn’t stop it but doesn’t mean they played a role.
Tyndale walked, so the KJV could run. I wonder how KJO's view Tyndale, considering how much of the KJV NT was taken/based from his work? Also, what are your thoughts on the Radical Reformers like Hans Denck?
@@anickelsworthbiblereviews Over half is probably a fair assessment, even if you consider the OT, since what Rogers contributed for Judges through 2 Corinthians was almost certainly the work of Tyndale.
Some of it was. But the work wasn’t finished so he borrowed from Coverdale and a few other sources. Really really hard to say there. I was only factoring the New Testament for the purposes of this video.
Such cool editions! I definitely need a Tyndale facsimile in my collection.
Thank you! Your videos are straightforward and presented with respective for the Bible’s you teach. ✝️

It is strange, but I don’t mind it.

Fire!
I always thought the Luther Bible from 1534 was the most important translation. Perhaps this is just my view being a German.
Great video. Tyndale is a Hero of the Faith!
I'll disagree with you on this one.
OK! Thanks for watching.
cool

Never heard of him.
I've heard that the New Testament of the KJV was 83-90% Tyndale.
I said over half because I’ve heard the same but can’t fully verify.
