Now, outside the walls of the castle, the prisoner was tied to a pole. had time to utter aloud his final prayer: "Lord, open the eyes of the King of England", after which he was hanged. Immediately, his body burned at the stake. Who was this man, and what was the offense for which both political and ecclesiastical authorities had condemned? His name was William Tyndale, and his crime was translating the Bible into English and it is published.

Tyndale, born in England at the time that Columbus sailed to the New World, was educated at Oxford and Cambridge and became a member of the Catholic clergy. He spoke eight languages \u200b\u200bfluently, including Greek, Hebrew and Latin. Tyndale was an ardent student of the Bible, and was very concerned about the widespread ignorance about the Scriptures that observed among priests and laity alike. In a heated discussion with a priest who believed that the Scriptures were due to reach the common man, Tyndale vowed, "If God gives me life, before many years pass, I'll have the young man who drives the plow to know scripture over yourself! ".

In the life of Joseph Smith's promise of Tyndale Williams when he said that if God granted life, before many years pass, the home would make the young man who drives the plow to know more of the Scriptures that the cleric.

With the help of loyal friends, Tyndale was able to publish the English translations of the New Testament and later the Old Testament. The Bibles were introduced illegally into England, were in high demand and greatly valued that they could get them. Be shared widely, but in secret. The authorities burned all the copies they found. However, in less than three years after Tyndale's death, God really opened the eyes of King Henry VIII, and the publication what is called "The Great Bible, the Scriptures in English began to be available to the public. Tyndale's work became the foundation of almost all future translations of the Bible into English, including the King James Version
