William Tyndale on the millennium & Christ's return
No position located on this map
Searched in the sources read for this figure and not found. A limit of the reading rather than a claim about the figure — a source not yet read could settle it.
THE POSITION
Nothing found. Searches of the three Parker Society volumes for the thousand years found the phrase only in other senses (purgatory's duration, the age of the church's ceremonies). His reading of the pope as antichrist is a separate question from Revelation 20 and does not settle it.
WHY THERE IS NO QUOTATIONFifteen of the nineteen positions carry a quotation. Four do not, for two reasons: on the canon and the millennium nothing was found in the three volumes searched, and on the Trinity and the final state he assumes the answer in passing rather than arguing it. Every quotation is read from the Parker Society edition through its scanned text, not a print copy. Four come from his 1534 prologue to Romans, which follows Luther's preface closely and says so in each cell.
WHAT OTHERS HOLD HERE
ABOUT THIS FIGURE
English translator of the New Testament from Greek and of the Pentateuch from Hebrew, working in exile in the Low Countries, whose wording runs through the King James Version. He was strangled and burned at Vilvoorde in 1536. He was also the first English Protestant theologian of weight, defending justification by faith, the authority of Scripture over the church, and the obedience owed to kings. This entry rests on the Obedience of a Christian Man, the Answer to Sir Thomas More, the Brief Declaration of the Sacraments, the exposition of 1 John and his biblical prologues, all in the Parker Society edition (1848–1850).
