About the ‘Wyc’

Acknowledgements

The entire English-speaking world is indebted to John Wycliffe for his brave work to make the Bible available in the language of the common people at a time when most priests insisted that the Bible was only valid in Latin.

Notes

The earliest editions were hand-copied because Gutenberg’s printing press didn’t come along until the 1450’s. Chapter divisions had been developed in the 1220’s and the Wycliffe Bible was the first to use those. (Verse divisions didn’t really come until the 1550’s.)
