Note 251 — Chapter VIII · THE PRINTED ENGLISH BIBLE
Reading edition
Johannes Cochlæus, An expediat laicis legere Novi Testamenti libros lingua vernacula, 1533, A. i. The warning of Cochlæus was addressed to the Scotch king, and as a result of this letter, pointing out the Lutheran character of the English version of Tyndale, the Scotch bishops in the Synod of St. Andrews in 1529 forbade the importation of Bibles into Scotland.
