Why did Henry Phillips betray William Tyndale?

Henry Phillips betrayed William Tyndale primarily for personal gain, motivated by financial reward and a desire for favor with the authorities. Phillips lured Tyndale into a trap by pretending to be sympathetic to his cause, leading to Tyndale's arrest in Antwerp in 1535. His betrayal ultimately resulted in Tyndale's execution for heresy, highlighting the dangers faced by those advocating for religious reform during that period.

What did William Tyndale have to do with translations of the Bible?

William Tyndale's one ambition was to translate the Bible into English from the original languages of Hebrew and Greek, with which he was acquainted. His attitude is exemplified in a statement he made to a clergyman who was of the view that only the clergy could read and interpret scripture:'If God spare my life, ere many years, I will cause a boy that driveth the plough to know more of the Scripture than thou dost."Tyndale completed his translation of the New Testament in 1525, while overseas, as it was too dangerous for him to do so in England. He further completed the translation of the Pentateuch(first five Old Testament books) as well as further revision of the New Testament before his arrest in 1535 and execution on Octobver 6,1536. His last words were reported to be: "Lord, open the King of England's eyes."Others carried on and completed the work he had begun and for which he gave his life, building on what he had started.Source: "Whos who in Christian history", J. D. Douglas, Tyndale, Illinois, 1992. p. 683-684.
