William Tyndale’s 1526 English New Testament was a landmark in history—the book that gave the plowboy the words of God in his own tongue, ignited the English Reformation, and shaped the very language of Scripture for generations to come. In this volume, Leland Ryken, one of the foremost authorities on the history of the English Bible, explores Tyndale’s translation philosophy, literary genius, and enduring influence. With clarity and depth, Ryken shows how Tyndale’s work became the fountainhead of the English Bible tradition and why it remains indispensable today.
This new edition includes a concluding chapter and afterword by Edward D. Andrews, presenting the Updated American Standard Version (UASV) as a modern heir of Tyndale’s legacy. Like Tyndale’s pioneering work, the UASV embodies literal accuracy, reverence for theological vocabulary, and clarity without compromise—preserving the timeless words of God for a new generation of “plowboys.”
More than a biography, this book is a celebration of Tyndale’s achievement and a call to treasure faithful translation. It is a vital resource for pastors, teachers, students, and all believers who long to hear God’s Word in the fullness of its truth and power.
