Description:

Baruch House Publishing here announces its undertaking to republish the Matthew Bible the original English Bible, first published in 1537 with its commentaries and notes, edited for the 21st century.We, upon whom the ends of the ages have come, have need of this pure translation in all its faithfulness, and also the teachings and warnings of this martyrs Bible.If God is willing, Baruch House will republish the Matthew Bible, which was the work primarily of three Englishmen, William Tyndale, Myles Coverdale, and John Rogers. First published in 1537, we are working from the 1549 edition. It will be minimally edited (we call it a "gentle update") for modern readers. We love God s word. His word is spirit, and it is life. We are indescribably blessed to be restoring the Matthew Bible to give to the world again.It was William Tyndale's most important work to translate the Holy Scriptures faithfully for English-speaking people so that, as he would say, they could read the word of their soul s health . He wished to render it plainly so that even the boy that drives the plough could understand. In this spirit, Baruch House undertakes to render the Matthew Bible in more modern English, as plainly as God shall grant, while maintaining all its flavour, meaning, truth, and beauty. This will be the New Matthew Bible.Why do we need another Bible version? This is not just another version. The Matthew Bible was the real primary version of the English Bible, upon which the King James Bible was based -- which is why we call the Matthew Bible the original Bible. We hope to show in articles on this website and on Academia.edu, and in our publications, including The Story of the Matthew Bible, just how well God s word is translated and annotated in the Matthew Bible, and how it brings needed light where winds of false doctrine have obscured God s truth. This is an age when Bible versions proliferate. But many have weakened the Holy Scriptures. We believe it is God s will to restore this translation, which has been forgotten and neglected for too long. It is a pure, faithful, and holy translation, which gives great insight into the mysteries of the faith and encourages godliness.We pray that our labour will be a blessing unto many who share our love and faith, and also that it may please the Lord our God.Updated May, 2020.For information about the New Matthew Bible Projectandinteresting articles, click here.More articles will be published at Academia.edu. Message from Ruth Magnusson, founder of the New Matthew Bible Project:For years I have not asked for, nor accepted, donations to the New Matthew Project. But expenses continue to mount. Despite my efforts to be frugal, they are high. Maintaining websites is a major cost. There are office expenses, accounting and book-keeping, and more. I am happy to be doing this work, and wouldn’t be doing anything else. But it costs, so to those who wish to support it, I give a big THANK YOU. Please consider being a partner in this project.
