Tyndale for Modern Readers March 9, 2006
7 out of 8 found this review helpful
David Daniell's edition of Tydale's 1534 translation masterpiece is a real treasure. Tyndale's gift for the English language has not been matched in the nearly 500 years since his death. This edition crosses the centuries well by modernizing the spelling so that Tyndale's gift for language is unencumbered. To many it will sound like the King James, and much of Tyndale's translation was used for this, but in many passages Tyndale's unique rendering give the timeless words of scripture new life.

This New Testament served my purpose very well. I used it to make text comparision with my King James Version as I studied. I would recommend this book to any one who is interested in in-depth Bible study.
AN ALMOST PERFECT EDITION ! December 18, 2004

This New Testament has everything needed & wanted, to reveal the mind & heart of our precious brother William Tyndale. All the prologues are in it, except the commentary on Mt 5,6,7.
David Daniell has done an exceptional job here, providing in 1 volume a wonderful host of helps : by him & by Wm.
This Bible work deserves a much higher quality binding & covers.
This present edition has nice wide margins for the references at the sides of each page. But it needs the same wide margins at the book centre, so it can be read without bent pages.
Does anyone have the address or phone # of Yale University Press?
I want to request this New Testament to be made the same size & print of their excellent 'Tyndale's Old Testament.' I was happy to receive C.B.D. last copy of this treasure !

Don't forget the prefaces October 13, 2004
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I agree with the other reviews on the great simple power of Tyndale's language. Apart from the translation there are Tyndale's prefaces: to the whole New Testament, and to the book of Romans, and a few other very short prefaces. The preface to Romans is largely a translation of Luther's preface, but he expands on it in a few places to give a few very profound insights of his own. In his preface to the New Testament (written later, I believe) he describes in brief a view of repentance and faith that lays some weight on our side of the covenant and departs from the simul justus et peccator of Luther. Agree or no, this is not a scholarly translation which says "here is the text in English; make of it what you will" - Tyndale's coherent understanding of the message of the New Testament and his desire to make this message known are what is behind his excellence of language.
 Daniell's Tyndale March 1, 2002

This 429 page (+ xxxv) hardcover volume is a nice appearing work. It contains an up-to-date "translation" of William Tyndale's 1534 New Testament. No mention on the quality of paper used. The type is clear and well printed.David Daniell is well qualified for this effort. He does a masterful job, and the book is a great value in the paperback edition, but the hardcover is priced much too high. It is poorly bound, using glue injection, the pages will not lay open! As the glue hardens in the future, you can expect pages to fall out. I am very glad I bought the book, Tyndale's work is worthy of study, and shows great respect for God's Word. Tyndale himself suffered greatly to get the Word into the hands of all English speakers... Surely the work would be more popular if it could be freely quoted. For your money, buy the paperback edition...
