Tyndale family (Tyndale Bible)

The Tyndale family refers to William Tyndale, a 16th-century scholar and translator known for translating the Bible into English. His most notable work, the Tyndale Bible, was among the first to translate the New Testament directly from Greek and the Old Testament from Hebrew. Tyndale's translations were groundbreaking, making the Bible accessible to English speakers at a time when it was primarily available in Latin. His efforts were significant in the Protestant Reformation, but they also led to his persecution and execution for heresy. Today, Tyndale's work is considered foundational for modern English Bibles.
