Reviews

'Luther's 1522 New Testament has a fair claim to be the most consequential book ever printed; it stands at the head of the whole modern tradition of Biblical translation. It deserves a tribute like this, examining not only Luther's achievement itself but its impact across Europe in the Reformation era.' - Professor Alec Ryrie, dept. of Theology and Religion, Durham University

Campbell's expertise and the contributions from other scholars make this book a definitive resource on the subject. Marc Daniel Rivera In KristiyaKnow, April 2024.
