The Tamil Bible now used by the Church of South India is the result of many translators, beginning with the Dutch Predicant, Baldeuus in 1660, who translated portions of the Scripture into Tamil. Then followed 2 full translations by Phillip Fabricus and C.T. Rhenius about 1770; and finally Arumuga Navalar, (1822-1879) assisted in the translation of the King James Version of the English Bible into Tamil, which is now used in the churches.
