Reformed Refined New Testament
William Tyndale’s 1526-1534 translation in refined Modern English

Before the KJV: The King James Version, there was William Tyndale.
After the ESV: English Standard Version, there is 21st Century Tyndale.

William Tyndale gave the English-speaking world Scripture in its own tongue direct from Greek and Hebrew manuscripts, at the cost of his life. The Reformed Refined New Testament seeks to preserve that voice for a new generation of readers.

The Reformed Refined New Testament presents Tyndale’s ground-breaking English translation carefully revised into current English while preserving the beauty, cadence, and sentence structure that shaped the English Bible tradition for centuries.

This edition does not paraphrase Tyndale. It refines him.

Early Modern English words and obsolete spellings have been updated for modern readers, yet Tyndale’s distinctive phrasing, theological precision, and literary rhythm remain intact. The result is a New Testament that reads with historic depth and clarity; bridging the world of the Reformation and the modern church.

Ideal for readers who appreciate the legacy of the Reformation, the history of the English Bible, and reverent literary translation, this edition offers a fresh way to experience the work that profoundly influenced the Geneva Bible and the King James Version.
