Description: This book delves into the fascinating history of the first complete Bible printed in English, the Coverdale Bible of 1535. It meticulously examines the various editions and title pages, shedding light on the mysteries surrounding its publication and the role of Myles Coverdale as translator. By exploring the historical context of religious reform and the scarcity of English translations at the time, the author underscores the significance of this landmark work. The book analyzes Coverdale's approach to translation, drawing on his own statements and comparing his work with other biblical interpretations. Ultimately, this book illuminates the enduring legacy of the Coverdale Bible, not only as a pivotal moment in the history of the English language but also as a testament to the power of making scripture accessible to all.
