Testament from the original language, and not as
Wycliffe had done, from the Latin Vulgate; and the
only edition of the Greek text which had yet
appeared, the only one at least likely to be in
Tyndale’s possession, was that issued by Erasmus
at Basle.”[16]
The reformers obliged to reject Jerome’s
Vulgate
The Reformation did not make great progress
until after the Received Text had been restored to
the world. The Reformers were not satisfied with
the Latin Vulgate.
The papal leaders did not comprehend the vast
departure from the truth they had created when
they had rejected the lead of the pure teachings of
the Scriptures. The spurious books of the Vulgate
opened the door for the mysterious and the dark
doctrines which had confused the thinking of the
ancients. The corrupt readings of the genuine
books decreased the confidence of people in
inspiration and increased the power of the priests.
