About this event
St Mary’s Church, Old Amersham £5 suggested donation In partnership with the Tyndale Society and St Mary’s Church, we are marking Tyndale500, the 500th anniversary of the first New Testament in English. 500 years ago in 1526 William Tyndale published the first New Testament in English to ever be printed and the first to be translated from the original Greek. His words and phraseology set a standard which continues today. The famous Authorised Version owes much to his text, and readers of Bibles in modern English still owe a great debt to Tyndale. Neil Rees lives in a village near Chesham and works as a technology consultant for the Bible Society. He is Chairman of the Tyndale Society and writes a monthly local history page for the Bucks Free Press. Please make sure you have checked details before ordering tickets. It is necessary for the museum to charge a cancellation fee of £1 to cover credit card and administration costs.
