William Tyndale

Scholar who first translated the New Testament into English from the original Greek, executed for his work.

About

William Tyndale (c. 1494-1536) was an English scholar who translated the New Testament directly from Greek into English, producing the first printed English New Testament. He was strangled and burned at the stake for heresy. His final words were reportedly "Lord, open the King of England's eyes." Within four years, King Henry VIII authorized an English Bible. His translation profoundly shaped the King James Version.
