Holy Bible - Mstc
Author: William Tyndale
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780615248554
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 700
Book Description
The First English Version of the Bible ever printed, this epoch-making work by William Tyndale and Miles Coverdale is presented for the first time complete in one volume in Modern Spelling. The TC translation is the foundation and true source of the celebrated King James Version. But where the KJV freely modifies the text, so that God's Word might better conform to "ecclesiastical traditions", the TC presents the Scriptures as they were delivered: without modification, ammendment, or compromise. This deluxe printed edition of the "MSTC" is illuminated with over 150 engravings and extensive helps, including Biographical Notes and Essays, Holy Land Maps, and a Concise Concordance.

The Murderous History of Bible Translations
Author: Harry Freedman
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1472921682
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
Harry Freedman recounts the fascinating and bloody history of the Bible. In 1535, William Tyndale, the first man to produce an English version of the Bible in print, was captured and imprisoned in Belgium. A year later he was strangled and then burned at the stake. His co-translator was also burned. In that same year the translator of the first Dutch Bible was arrested and beheaded. These were not the first, nor were they the last instances of extreme violence against Bible translators. The Murderous History of Bible Translations tells the remarkable, and bloody, story of those who dared translate the word of God. The Bible has been translated far more than any other book. To our minds it is self-evident that believers can read their sacred literature in a language they understand. But the history of Bible translations is far more contentious than reason would suggest. Bible translations underlie an astonishing number of religious conflicts that have plagued the world. Harry Freedman, author of The Talmud: A Biography describes brilliantly the passions and strong emotions that arise when deeply held religious convictions are threatened or undermined. He tells of the struggle for authority and orthodoxy in a world where temporal power was always subjugated to the divine. A world in which the idea of a Bible for all was so important that many were willing to give up their time, their security and often their lives.

A New English Translation of the Septuagint
Author: Albert Pietersma
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 019972394X
Category : Bibles
Languages : en
Pages : 1050
Book Description
The Septuagint (the ancient Greek translation of Jewish sacred writings) is of great importance in the history of both Judaism and Christianity. The first translation of the books of the Hebrew Bible (plus additions) into the common language of the ancient Mediterranean world made the Jewish scriptures accessible to many outside Judaism. Not only did the Septuagint become Holy Writ to Greek speaking Jews but it was also the Bible of the early Christian communities: the scripture they cited and the textual foundation of the early Christian movement. Translated from Hebrew (and Aramaic) originals in the two centuries before Jesus, the Septuagint provides important information about the history of the text of the Bible. For centuries, scholars have looked to the Septuagint for information about the nature of the text and of how passages and specific words were understood. For students of the Bible, the New Testament in particular, the study of the Septuagint's influence is a vital part of the history of interpretation. But until now, the Septuagint has not been available to English readers in a modern and accurate translation. The New English Translation of the Septuagint fills this gap.
