Willaim Tyndale (1494-1536) believed that the common people should have The Bible in their own language so they could read and understand and then follow it. Having studied both Greek and Hebrew at Oxford he was certainly qualified for this great work. His attitude, in being critical of the ignorance of the church of his time, who believed that only the clergy were entitled to read and interpret scripture, can be summed up in a statement he made to a clergyman of the time. "If God spare my life, ere many years, I will cause a boy that driveth the plough to know more of the Scripture than thou dost."
He thus believed the Bible to be the very word of God, and that it could be understood and should be given to the masses.

How is it possible to have a high view of the authority of Scripture and a positive view of textual criticism at the same time?
It is possible to have a high view of the authority of Scripture while also valuing textual criticism because textual criticism helps to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the biblical text. By critically examining and analyzing various manuscripts, textual critics seek to uncover the original wording of the biblical texts, which can enhance our understanding and interpretation of Scripture without undermining its authority. Ultimately, a positive view of textual criticism can strengthen one's confidence in the authenticity and trustworthiness of the Bible.
