内容説明
John Wycliffe's preaching and writing inspired his followers to translate the Bible from the Latin Vulgate into English for the first time. Wycliffe believed that every person should have access to the Scriptures in their own tongue. These views brought into question the hierarchical practices of the Church, and when the text of the New Testament presented here appeared in 1388, its impact was so great that in 1401 a statute was issued banning it upon pain of death. This edition, published in association with the Tyndale Society, has been rendered into modern spelling so that over 600 years later the reader can enjoy this remarkable text.
