The History of the 1519 Erasmus Novum Testamentum
October 31, 1517 is the popular commencement of the dawn of the Reformation; when Martin Luther nailed his 95 theses to the Wittemburg door. But the reform, in which Martin Luther was about to advance, rested on the foundation that was laid just one year previous; the printed Greek New Testament produced by Erasmus of Rotterdam, 1469-1536. The New Testament, brought to light in the original Greek tongue, was now compiled and made available for mankind to study and learn. The learned scholar, although working under and deeply associated with the Roman Catholic Church, declared his disagreement with those who wanted to keep the Scriptures from the common people. He said, “If only the farmer would sing something from them at his plow, the weaver move his shuttle to their tune, the traveler lighten the boredom of his journey with Scriptural stories!” Little did he know, the work he was about to produce would change the world forever. This Greek New Testament, in printed form, would become the standard of the New Testament, launching the translations of Martin Luther and William Tyndale into the world. Thus, fulfilling his dream, that all men would read the Bible for themselves in their common language. His new “study Bible” had two main parts, the Greek text and a revised Latin edition, more elegant and accurate than the traditional translation of Jerome’s Latin Vulgate. Erasmus prefaced this monumental work of scholarship with an exhortation to Bible study. The New Testament, he proclaimed, contains the “philosophy of Christ, ” a simple and accessible teaching with the power to transform lives.Erasmus’ first edition of the Greek New Testament went to the press in October 1515, and was completed in March of 1516. In 1519, this second edition, was produced which corrected many typographical errors that had occurred during the first printing process. It was this 1519 edition that changed the world. The gospel was brought to light and made available. This enabled Martin Luther and William Tyndale to translate the Holy Scriptures into the common tongue of German and English, thus igniting the fire of the Gospel to be heard and read by all those who would believe in the Truth of Jesus.
