Bishop Tunstall of London declared that he found more than 2,000 errors in Tyndale's Bible while Saint Thomas More, the Lord Chancellor of England, wrote a treatise against the heretical translation and asserted that to "find errors in Tyndale's book were like studying to find water in the sea."

To prove there's any accuracy to this accusation, you will provide the list of 2000 errors made by Tyndale, correct???

A Bible translated and published by Miles Coverdale the year Tyndale died, was the first one to be printed with Henry VIII's permission, after he was assured by Thomas Cranmer that it contained no heresies.

However, Coverdale's Bible was little more than a minor revision of Tyndale's, along with the completed Old Testament (of which Tyndale had completed only a handful of books before he was martyred).

Whatever these 2000 errors were, I doubt they were fixed by Coverdale. They probably disappeared by magic.

Amen. The piece is long on accusation, but nonexistent in proof.
