The Matthew Bible, the first complete English-language Bible, is printed by John Rogers in 1537, under the pseudonym "Thomas Matthew".
It was a significant translation because it was based on the original Greek and Hebrew texts, unlike the earlier Coverdale Bible which relied on German and Latin sources. Rogers was eventually tried and executed as a heretic in 1555 under Mary I for having translated the Bible; a punishable offence on those days.
