This is William Tyndale's New Testament as it was published in the 1537/1549 Matthew Bible, complete with the notes and commentaries of that Reformation Bible, and all gently updated by Ruth Magnusson Davis. It is the only 'modern' bible which is not. It maintains the historic language and enduring, true doctrine of the faith. This is a larger-sized edition of the original, with larger print. A great size for study.

The October Testament is the combined work of three people:William Tyndale: This is Tyndale's last New Testament, completed in 1535 just before he was captured and martyred, as it was taken into the 1537 Matthew Bible. Because the King James Version relied heavily on Tyndale, readers will find much that is familiar here.John Rogers: In 1537, a year after Tyndale died, Rogers published his New Testament together with notes and commentaries in the little-known but important Matthew Bible. King Henry VIII then licensed it, and the MB was authorized for use in the churches.Ruth Magnusson Davis: Now, almost 500 years later, Ruth M. Davis has updated Tyndale's scriptures and Rogers' notes with a gentle hand, guarding the historic language and truth of the faith.The name October Testament recalls Martin Luther's "September Testament." More significantly, however, just as the advent of October signals the approach of the end of a calendar year, so it also reminds us that the year of the Lord is drawing ever onward to its close.

After centuries of neglect, at last we have a popular yet well-sourced account of the Matthew Bible and the men who gave it to us. Ruth M. Davis gives a vivid and passionate account of the heroes who struggled and suffered to produce our seminal English Bible in 1537 not only of the giant William Tyndale, but also the lesser-known Myles Coverdale and John Rogers. These three, with the help of Henry VIII's chief ministers Thomas Cranmer and Thomas Cromwell, were the martyrs and soldiers who won the field for the Scriptures that formed the basis of the King James Version. Davis's vigorous, sometimes poetic, prose will satisfy both the academic reader and those curious to learn more about the tumultuous origins of our English Bible and about the Scriptures we first received.The Matthew Bible is the only English Bible that was bought with blood. This book is the only history ever devoted just to telling its story.Ruth Magnusson Davis is a retired lawyer and a student of early modern English and the Reformation. In 2009 she founded the New Matthew Bible Project, dedicated to gently updating the Matthew Bible for today.
