Translated by Desiderius Erasmus. Published by Johann Froban. This first edition of Erasmus’s Greek New Testament is the earliest publication of the New Testament in Greek. Erasmus and Froban rushed the translation and publication of this work to appear before the Complutensian Polyglot. Erasmus’s Latin translation of the text was printed alongside the Greek translation. Due to the rush to complete the printing, many errors appeared. In 1518–1519, the New Testament was reprinted, correcting many of these errors. The dedication to Leo X is enclosed within ornamental borders, and throughout this text there are numerous ornaments and initialed letters.
