One of the key foundation books of the English Reformation, The Obedience of a Christian Man (1528) makes a radical challenge to the established order of the all-powerful Church of its time. Himself a priest, Tyndale boldly claims that there is just one social structure created by God to which all must be obedient, without the intervention of the rule of the Pope. He argues that Christians cannot be saved simply by performing ceremonies or by hearing the Scriptures in Latin, which most could not understand, and that all should have access to the Bible in their own language - an idea that was then both bold and dangerous. Powerful in thought and theological learning, this is a landmark in religious and political thinking. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

"William Tyndale (1492-1536) was a prominent English scholar who greatly aided the Protestant reformation with the translation and publication of the Tyndale Bible. Tyndale received a B.A. and M.A. from Cambridge University, where he would begin his extensive research and translations of the New Testament. Utilizing recent printing technologies, Tyndale's version of the Bible became widely known, attracting controversy along with praise. His theological views developed as he became more involved with the reformation. In The Obedience of a Christian Man (1528) [he lays out] his notions for the divine rights of kings, wherein the king of a country is also the head of the church."
