This, combined with exactness and breadth of scholarship, led him so to translate the Greek New Testament into English as largely to determine the character, form, and style of the Authorized Version. There have been some painstaking calculations to determine just how large a part Tyndale may have had in the production of the version of 1611. A comparison of Tyndale's version of I John and that of the Authorized Version shows that nine-tenths of the latter is retained from the martyred translator's work. Paul's Epistle to the Ephesians retains five-sixths of Tyndale's translation. These proportions are maintained throughout the entire New Testament. Such an influence as that upon the English Bible cannot be attributed to any other man in all the past. More than that, Tyndale set a standard for the English language that molded in part the character and style of the tongue during the great Elizabethan era and all subsequent time. He gave the language fixity, volubleness, grace, beauty, simplicity, and directness. His influence as a man of letters was permanent on the style and literary taste of the English people, and of all who admire the superiority and epochal character of the literature of the sixteenth century.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6838</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you're curious, you find lots of interesting things to do. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66410]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you're curious, you find lots of interesting things to do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66410</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If [it] yields to the drift of the age and surrenders its hold of the awful but glorious individualism of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6447]]></link><description><![CDATA[If [it] yields to the drift of the age and surrenders its hold of the awful but glorious individualism of the Christian salvation,... the Church itself will not be much enriched by an accession of panic-stricken fugitives from a Personal God.
