Who was burnt at the stake for Bible translation?

Answer 1

Jan Hus [c. 1372-July 6, 1415], whose last words were, "In a hundred years, God will raise up a man whose calls for reform cannot be suppressed." God may have decided to listen to that dying request. For Martin Luther [November 10, 1483-February 18, 1546] wrote his 95 theses on the Power and Efficacy of Ingulgences, in contention against the Roman Catholic Church 102 years later, on October 31, 1517. John Rogers [c.1500-February 4, 1555], who was the first Protestant martyr under Queen Mary I [February 18, 1516-November 17, 1558] of England. He was denied the opportunity of a final meeting with his wife and children. According to French Ambassador Antoine, 1st comte de Noailles [1504-1562], Rogers' family, friends, and most of those who were forced to attend therefore compensated the unseemly royal denial by "comforting him in [at his execution] in such a manner that it seemed as if he had been led to a wedding" William Tyndale [c. 1494-October 6?, 1536], whose last words were, "Lord! Open the King [Henry VIII, June 28, 1491-January 28, 1547] of England's eyes." God may have decided to listen to that dying request. For it was granted, in 1611, with the publication of The Bible version that's ka the King James [VI of Scotland, and I of England and Ireland, June 19, 1566-March 27, 1625]. But the limitations on the granting of the divine request were that the royal son of the beheaded Mary, Queen of Scots [December 8, 1542-February 8, 1587] took much of what Tyndale had done, without letting him get the final credit.
