This, combined with exactness and breadth of scholarship, led him so to translate the Greek New Testament into English as largely to determine the character, form, and style of the Authorized Version. There have been some painstaking calculations to determine just how large a part Tyndale may have had in the production of the version of 1611. A comparison of Tyndale's version of I John and that of the Authorized Version shows that nine-tenths of the latter is retained from the martyred translator's work. Paul's Epistle to the Ephesians retains five-sixths of Tyndale's translation. These proportions are maintained throughout the entire New Testament. Such an influence as that upon the English Bible cannot be attributed to any other man in all the past. More than that, Tyndale set a standard for the English language that molded in part the character and style of the tongue during the great Elizabethan era and all subsequent time. He gave the language fixity, volubleness, grace, beauty, simplicity, and directness. His influence as a man of letters was permanent on the style and literary taste of the English people, and of all who admire the superiority and epochal character of the literature of the sixteenth century.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6838</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men die, but sorrow never dies; The crowding years divide in vain,  And the wide world is knit with ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57242]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men die, but sorrow never dies; The crowding years divide in vain,  And the wide world is knit with ties   Of common brotherhood in pain.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57242</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That's the first time we've seen this many houses in the million-dollar range on the market. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31231]]></link><description><![CDATA[That's the first time we've seen this many houses in the million-dollar range on the market.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31231</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In war, events of importance are the result of trivial causes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5372]]></link><description><![CDATA[In war, events of importance are the result of trivial causes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5372</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That guy has been a rock all year and I don't have to think twice about his game.
