The translators were scholars exiled for their religion by Queen Elizabeth. Outstanding among them were Allen, Martin, Bristow, and Worthington. The publication was delayed for nearly thirty years by 'our poore estate in banishment.' This version is noteworthy for its Latinized style; many of the words are unknown elsewhere in English Bibles; as, 'colinquinations,' 'pasche,' 'prepuce,' 'scenopegia,' and 'He exinanited Himself' ('He humbled Himself'). Even the headings are in some cases unfamiliar: Osee, Micheas, Sophronias, and Aggeus (Darlow and Moule 231)."
