Tyndale House

Tyndale House is an independent biblical studies library in Cambridge, England, with a Christian foundation. Founded in 1945,[1] it aims to provide specialist resources in support of research into the Old and New Testaments, along with relevant historical backgrounds.[2]

Description

Tyndale House is a residential centre for biblical scholarship. Many of its readers are doctoral students from the

Faculty of Divinity or the Faculty of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies. Tyndale House also houses students and scholars from around the world working at postgraduate level. Scholars who have spent time at Tyndale House include Craig Blomberg, D. A. Carson, Wayne Grudem, Leon Morris, J. I. Packer, John Piper, John Stott, and Donald Wiseman
.

The

Tyndale Fellowship, an academic society associated with Tyndale House, is an international fellowship of Christians engaged in biblical and theological research. The Tyndale Bulletin is an annual journal of Tyndale House.[3]

In 2013, Tyndale House launched the online Bible software

STEP Bible
.

In 2017, Tyndale House published an edition of the Greek New Testament with Cambridge University Press and Crossway Books.[4] Researchers have called the Tyndale House Greek New Testament "the most faithful rendering of the original text ever produced" and suggested it "could pave the way for more accurate English translations".[5]

In the same year, Tyndale House Research Associate, Dr Kim Phillips, published an article in the Tyndale Bulletin identifying a Bible manuscript in St Petersburg, Russia, as by the scribe who also wrote the Leningrad Codex, the earliest complete copy of the entire Old Testament in Hebrew.[6][7]

In 2022 researchers from Tyndale House were involved in the discovery of part of the lost star catalogue of Hipparchus.[8][9][10]
