Description: This Bible was printed in English on paper in London, England by Nicholas Hyll in 1551. It is an example of an Early Reformation Bible whose early English translation was the basis for contemporary translations. The original translator for much of the Bible was actually William Tyndale. However, his translation was not actually sanctioned by the church and was declared heretical for being Reformist in nature. Hyll couldn’t attribute the translation to Tyndall so he created the pseudonym Thomas Matthew. This Bible is valuable in that its translation was done at the risk of the translator’s life so that the Bible could be read by those who couldn’t read Latin.
