Excerpt from The Popular History of the Translation of the Holy Scriptures: Into the English Tongue, With Specimens of the Old English Versions
The following history of the English Bible was first published in the year 1856. It was received with general favor, and was republished without change in 1859. It was popular in its spirit and form; and for the first time it brought before the reader, in moderate compass, the whole subject of English Bible translation. Its materials were drawn from all that had been written directly on the subject, and from every other source from which light could be obtained. A list of the authorities consulted, in the preparation of the work, is added at the end of the author's preface.
In preparing this revised edition, the history has been compared throughout with works bearing on the subject that have appeared since its first publication; and such changes have been made as were found necessary to Conform it to the present state of knowledge. The editor is specially indebted to the new and accurate researches of Mr. Westcott, in his History of the English Bible, and to Dr. Philip Schaff's Introduction to the American reprint of the Treatises of Trench, Lightfoot, and Ellicott, and to the Revision of the English version of the New Testament.
A closing chapter is added by the editor, bringing the history down to the present time; showing the steps by which the way has been gradually prepared for renewing the work of revision, under circumstances more favorable, and with materials far more ample, than at any former period in English history.
While these lines are going to the press, the Anglo-American revision of the English New Testament is made public, and received here with general interest, and with a sale of the book unprecedented in the publication of any other work, so far as is known to the writer. That such is the case augurs well for the interest felt in the Divine Word, and in all that may contribute to the purity of its text, and render its teachings more clear and intelligible.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the life and groundbreaking work of John Wycliffe, widely regarded as the father of English Bible translation. The author presents a vivid account of the deeply rooted religious systems in place in 14th-century England, and the social, political, and ecclesiastical forces that shaped Wycliffe's mission. The narrative highlights Wycliffe's bold theological teachings, which challenged the authority of the Roman Catholic Church and sowed the seeds of the Protestant Reformation. By placing Wycliffe's work in the context of broader church history, this book offers a comprehensive examination of the man and his lasting impact on Christianity and Western civilization. Wycliffe's fervor sparked a profound shift toward vernacular Bible access and set the stage for an era characterized by an increased emphasis on individual conscience and the authority of Scripture. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
