Guide to the notes and commentaries in the posted books

In the New Testament, except the square-bracketed items, left margin notes on each page are Tyndale’s, from his 1534 New Testament, and the notes at chapter ends, called “The Notes”, are from John Rogers. Some of Rogers' notes are taken from others, including Tyndale, Luther and other Reformers, and various Church fathers. ( Thus Tyndale's commentaries may appear both in the margins and in the end notes. This formatting follows generally John Rogers' in the 1549 Matthew Bible.) Rogers' notes are broad ranging, and may be historical, philological, doctrinal, or other.

The Old Testament book of Genesis (chapters 1-25) includes a guide to interpreting the notes.
