Bible Note: William Tyndale (1494-1536) was inspired by the efforts of various monks and scholars, not least of whom included John Wycliffe. Tyndale left England with only a very basic understanding of Hebrew. By the time he returned, he had mastered as few scholars have done. So equipped he translated a number of Old Testament books. He had begun a translation of the New Testament from the Greek. Before completing this effort, he was betrayed by a friend. Tyndale was arrested and detained in the Vilvoorden, in dreadful conditions, for over 500 days. In an unfair trial he was convicted for heresy and treason. There is a small stone cross now standing in Oxford where he was executed by burning October 6, 1536, at that time the prison yard. Tyndale's last words were "Lord, open the king of England's eyes!" Tyndale's prayer was answered! In 1539, the king made it legal to publish and own English copies of the Bible. The 1539 English "Great Bible" was published. Ironically, some of Tyndale's translation work was used. Much more of his work was used in the 1611 King James Bible. It is in this tradition that our gracious host, the Lockman Foundation, was tasked with the publication of the New American Standard Version -- a translation that is my personal favorite. The foundation was able to do so in keeping with the freedom that we enjoy in our time. Our Lord plunders His enemies and gives gifts to His church. Praise Him! |
