1 gen 1301 anni - The Evolution of English Translations

Descrizione:

The journey of English Bible translations began in the 10th century with the West Saxon Gospels, which were thee earliest surviving translations of the Gospels from Latin into Old English. This was followed by the Old English Hexateuch in the 11th century, which translated the first sic books of the Old Testament from Latin. In the 14th century, John Wycliffe produced the first complete English Bible, translating from the Latin Vulgate. This translation was significant as it made the scriptures available to the English-speaking public, challenging the Church's control over biblical texts. The Tyndale Bible, published in 1525, marked a pivotal moment as it was the first English translation directly from Greek and Hebrew texts. Tyndale's work laid the foundation for future translations, although he faced persecution for his efforts.
