	ADVERTISEMENT.
		He is said to have been born in the year 1488, and to have been a native of the district of Coverdale in Richmondshire, from which district it is probable that his family took their name.
		The situation of Coverdale having become unsafe from the conspicuous part which he had taken in defense of the new doctrines, he left England for a few years in the latter part of the reign of Henry VIII, during which time he was in the Netherlands, Denmark, and the north of Germany.
		The works of Bishop Coverdale are partly original, and partly translated, chiefly consisting of the latter; it being a remarkable characteristic of this great man, that he did not disdain to employ the labors of others, when he thought them likely to be more effective than his own.

		Coverdale received his passport on the 19th of February, and soon landed in Denmark.

		Although Coverdale’s second edition of 1537 contained the license of the king, the first Bible to obtain such license was published earlier the same year.
		Although the Coverdale and Matthew Bibles were “set forth with the King’s most gracious license,” the Great Bible was the first “authorized” Bible.
		Coverdale’s and Matthew’s Bibles could conceivably be omitted because they rely so much on Tyndale.

		Coverdale's Bible was printed in 1535 and imported into England, a dedication to the Henry VIII being added to the imported copies.
		Coverdale never identified himself with Lutheranism to the extent Tyndale did; because of this his work met with greater acceptance, even among a court that, while no longer Catholic, was strongly anti-Lutheran.

	The next major English translator after Tyndale is Myles Coverdale (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		The next major English translator after Tyndale is Myles Coverdale (1488-1569), who, like most of the translators of this period, did his work in the safety of Reformed Europe.
		However, when Coverdale printed his second edition in 1537, it became the first English Bible to be authorized and appeared with the words, "Set forth with the kinge's most gracyous license" on the title page.
		Coverdale was not proficient in Hebrew and Greek, so he did not translate from the original text.

	Where We Got the Bible, Chapter Fourteen
		Coverdale was a priest, who married abroad, and kept a school.
		In 1537 appeared Matthew’s or Roger’s Bible (which was a mixture of Tyndale’s and Coverdale’s), and this has the distinction of being the first that henry authorized to be used by the people at large.
		Matthew or Rogers (for he assumed different names for Bible-selling purposes) was, like Coverdale, a renegade priest, and had married, and we are not surprised to find that some of his notes on the Gospel were indecent, and others consisted of abuse of the Church, her clergy, and her doctrines.

		Coverdale was also a man of very different stamp from Tyndale.
		Coverdale's Bible makes no pretence to be an original translation; it is "translated out of German and Latin into English," with the help of "five sundry interpreters" (translators), and the chief of these "interpreters" is evidently William Tyndale, whom, in the New Testament especially, he closely follows.
		Like his predecessor, Tyndale, Coverdale also suffered for the fierce opposition of the priesthood against the translators and publishers of the Bible, while the many changes in the policy of the government placed him in frequent peril.

		WHILE Tyndale was waiting for the crown of martyrdom in the prison of Vilvord, his brother exile, Coverdale, was pursuing his labours as a translator; and, in the year 1535, completed the first English version of the whole Scriptures from the original.
		Coverdale, like Wiclif and Tyndale, seems to have taken his name from the place of his nativity.
		Coverdale had probably found that it would not be safe for him to remain any longer in England, his zeal in promoting the reformed doctrines being known to the ecclesiastical authorities.

		It was Myles Coverdale (1488-1569) who was the first to publish a complete English Bible.
		Cromwell delegated to Myles Coverdale the work of revising the Matthew Bible and its controversial notes.
		As mentioned previously, various schemes have been contrived to make the English Bibles up to and including the Authorized Version fit the description in Psalm 12:6 of the words of the Lord being "purified seven times." The problem with this noble goal is that it entails the elimination of three versions.

		MYLES COVERDALE, S.T.P., born near Middleham, in Yorkshire, had been a Religious of the Augustinian Convent at Cambridge (now occupied by the Physic Garden of its University), but releasing himself from his solemn vows, became a, zealous instrument of the Reformation.
		In Thomas, Lord Crumwell, he found a powerful abettor: his labours in translating and editing the Bible in 1535, must place him among the leading scholars of the times; as a preacher, he was celebrated at home and abroad.
		In the insurrection throughout this diocese in 1549, he received a license, with Doctors Gregory and Reynolds, from the infant King, to declare the Word of God to the people, in such public places as Lord John Russell, the general sent down to oppose the insurgents, should appoint ('Strype,' vol.
