Recommended: Evaluation on William Tyndale's work

William Tyndale was born in 1494 in England. He is most well known for his English translation of the New Testament. Tyndale has been a priest in the Catholic Church before decided to leave that part of his life to spread the Bible to his fellow countrymen. This response will cover an assessment from his work translating Romans Chapter 8.

Tyndale’s translation of Romans Chapter 8 is an almost exact replica of what you may find in the King James Bible. It starts off by telling the reading not to follow the will of the flesh, but to follow the guidance of the spirit. It also talks about how if we pursue our desires of the flesh, we must surely die. Tyndale recorded the Romans said we are saved by hope, and not by ourselves or our flesh, which

  • Analysis Of In Praise Of Scribes, By Johannes Trithemius

    340 Words  | 1 Pages

    Johannes Trithemius discusses the noble work of scribes in his piece titled, “In Praise of Scribes.” He talks about how the work of a scribe is considered the work of God in which they can meet eternal glory in their uninhibited praise of the Lord. On page 470 he writes, “What more can I say in praise of copying?” This sparked a modern connection to the push in plagiarism and ownership of one’s work. These idea are not taken lightly today. Universities across the nation hold strict policies limiting the student’s from cheating and copying. At a national level, the government holds policies that may result in the monetary or legal repercussions. This modern view of plagiarism is starkly contrasted to the writing of Trithemius, who praises

    This quote by Gene Nowlin in his book The Paraphrased Perversion of the Bible summarizes the composition of the Bible. Throughout life, Christians grasp tightly to these words of God in hopes to inherit the Kingdom of God one day. In order to do this, they must study the Bible closely and apply it to their lives daily. Without the proper Bible, this may become a difficult task to accomplish. Although the various translations of the Christian Bible are exceptionally similar in their message, some have quite a few differences and perversions that set them apart from one another. Many of them even leave out several potentially important verses in their revision. These variations contribute to the justification of one translation being more reliable and accurate than the other versions.

  • Romans 8:1-17 As A Summary Of Paul's Thoughts

    1170 Words  | 3 Pages

    "There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set me free from the law of sin and death" (Rom 8:1-2). Paul believes if you are in Christ Jesus, then you will be saved. Because of Jesus' selflessness, he has freed us from sin and death. God had created the world through wisdom and with Adam we then were under the reign of sin. Then, with the resurrection of Jesus, He freed us from the law and we entered into a period of grace with God. We are living by the Spirit in an era of grace, so therefore we should be dead to sin. Paul explains this in greater detail in the beginning of Romans in 3:9.

  • Language Analysis of "The Canonization" by John Donne

    276 Words  | 1 Pages

    Voltaire's Candide captures the extremes of human suffering, providing a disparaging account of what many of us would deem an unbearable cross to carry. While the author's message was not to glorify his characters for their resilience, the reader will clearly feel humbled after learning of the intense suffering that Candide and friends endure. In particular, it is the story of the old woman, who perhaps best explains the spirit of the characters, when she says 'A hundred times I wanted to kill myself, but I always loved life more.' Considering that she has been raped repeatedly and essentially gone from riches to rags, her passion for life should remain unquestioned. Candide also displays this sense of hope in light of his many hardships. He honors his commitment to marry Cunegonde at the end of the story despite the physical abnormalities that have plagued her. Cunegonde, as you may remember, was also raped and taken as a sex slave. In addition, she was a victim of cannibalism and her face has clearly made a turn for the worse. Essentially, her once beautiful physique has undergone a complete transformation.
