medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Hi!
I am not really sure what you mean by the 'svenska folkbibeln' since I've
never heard it frased quite that way before. But we do have a Bible
popularly called 'Gustav Vasas bibel'. That was commissioned by the Swedish
king Gustav Vasa, with the New Testament published in 1526. This was
probably done by the frontal figures af the Swedish reformation, Laurentius
Andreae and Olaus Petri. This was not based on any Latin version, instead it
closely followed the German translation of the Bible.
All subsequent Bibles published in Sweden (like for example 'Karl XII:
bibel') are merely modernizations of this first one.
Hope this helps!

Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be
chewed and digested.
