Our group visited the British Library in London and toured the exhibition "Sacred," which presents some of the rarest and most exquisite books and manuscripts from the faith traditions of judaism, christianity, and islam. We saw a number of books dealing with our subject. Of special note was the Tyndale New Testament. We had walked the streets that Tyndale walked in Antwerp, seen his college at Oxford, and now saw one of the three copies of this book that are known to be in existence. Though printed, the British Library copy features beautiful illuminations produced by hand throughout. The library purchased this copy in 1994 for over a million pounds. It is considered by some to be the most important printed book in the English language.
