The work of William Tyndale and Richard Taverner. This bible is from the year 1551 in the reign of King Edward VI, is the Taverner Old Testament and the Tydale New Testament translation.

went to the Dead Sea Scroll Exhibition yesterday with Enci and SzeEan,

I'm marvelled about the fact that our Holy bibles really don't come easy

  • countless people had risked and sacrifcied their lives just to protect the bible, making sure that it will be pass on to many generations,that they too can enjoy God's Word
  • many significant people had spent so much time and effort,under harsh and tormenting conditions just to translate to another language, so that the Word of God can reach another race. after them will get to enjoy the word.


And God's timing is just so perfect, that under a particular political and cultural factors, the bible can be formed and produced massively.

One new martyr that I learnt from the exhibition:William Tyndale.
