¿?First bible translated into english?¿

I KNOW there were a few, except I don't have the list handy. If I can find it, I'll post them.

The Tyndale Bible was translated in 1526, the Great Bible was translated in 1539, and the Bishops' Bible was translated in 1568.


These are the only major ones that I know of

As for where you can find a copy of either of these I doubt you will have much luck. For many of them are no longer available. The only ones I know of are collectors items and are $2000 +

Here is a link to a site where you can look at pictures of these older bible versions.

Hope this helps

www.greatsite.com has tons of info on translations

Several English Bibles came before the KJV in 1611.

 

Wycliff Bible (1395), Tyndale Bible 1525, Douay-Rheims (late 1500s), Geneva Bible (1585) to name a few.....

Ya the Wycliff Bible (1395) was the first english translation.

Perhaps the first *full* translation, but there were a number of partial translations (usually gospels and psalms) going back to the 800's (these would have been in Old English and they were mostly made from the Latin Vulgate).

There were at least 9 or 10 English translations of the Bible when the KJV came out.
