Publisher Description

Reading and studying the Bible fueled the Reformation. Protestants found new light in the pages of scripture to answer the deep theological questions at the heart of their unease with the Roman Catholic Church. (1) Breaking from the Church also meant breaking from the Church's translation of the Bible: Jerome's Vulgate. Translating the Bible into the vernacular enabled these protesting Christians to read and hear the words of scripture in their own languages and to wrestle control of those words from an educated clergy. (2) Freedom to read, study, and interpret the words of scripture went hand in hand with the burgeoning political and social quest to decide for oneself or one's family how to worship God and to serve the, monarch. The words of the Bible were powerful agents for reform, or outright rebellion.
