[[File:William Tyndale.jpg|thumb|William Tyndale]]
'''William Tyndale''' (1494-1536) was a religious reformer and an important translator of the [[Bible]] into English. His translation of the [[New Testament]] from Greek has been acclaimed as one of the finest translations ever undertaken, and much of its language survived into the King James (Authorized) Bible of 1611, and from there into most modern English Bibles. He was born circa 1494, in the tiny hamlet of [[North Nibley]], [[Gloucestershire]]. Tyndale was educated at Magdalen Hall, [[Oxford University|Oxford]], where he was admitted to the Degree of [[Bachelor of Arts]] in 1512. In 1515 he was made [[Master of Arts]] and ordained into the priesthood.
