Synopsis

This book contains the 1550 treatise of Myles Coverdale as it was reprinted by the Parker Society in 1846, with also an Appendix by Ruth Magnusson Davis.

"The Hope of the Faithful" is Coverdale's translation of the German work of Otho Wermullerus. It sets forth the traditional doctrine of heaven and hell. Written to refute those who deny that there is an eternal life and an eternal damnation, it draws heavily on the Scriptures and on patristic doctrine, especially the works of Augustine and Jerome.

The Appendix by Ruth Magnusson Davis shows how post-Reformation Bible translators have changed the Scriptures to weaken or even deny traditional doctrine. Especially, Davis reveals how the 1894 Revised Version used the transliteration "Sheol" to change the teachings of the Old Testament. Coverdale would be pleased to see his work brought to light again to refute moderns who deny the traditional doctrine of heaven and hell.

À propos des auteurs

One of the early English Reformers, Myles Coverdale laboured extensively on the early English Bible, and on translating and publishing the best of foreign Christian works for the English reading public. He produced the first English printed Bible, the 1535 Coverdale edition, which was also the first English Bible to be licensed for use in the Church of England. His Scripture translations were taken in part into the 1537 Matthew Bible.

Ruth Magnusson Davis is the founder of the New Matthew Bible Project, dedicated to gently updating the Matthew Bible for today. She is a foremost authority on the Matthew Bible, as well as on Myles Coverdale's 1535 Bible and the works of Myles Coverdale and William Tyndale.
