The first New Testament printed in English by William Tyndale
"The first New Testament printed in English" by William Tyndale is a biblical translation completed around 1525-1526. Working directly from Greek and Hebrew texts, Tyndale created the first mass-produced English Bible through new printing technology. His translation challenged Catholic doctrine through controversial word choices like "congregation" instead of "church" and "love" instead of "charity." Banned and burned by English authorities, Tyndale's work was condemned as heretical. He was arrested in 1535 and
executed for promoting Lutheran views, yet his translation profoundly influenced later English Bibles. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
