In 1517, Martin Luther changed all of this. He brought new beliefs to the table, including how The Bible should be accessible to all. The only way to establish this would be to translate The Bible into the vernacular, or the common language of the ordinary people. Luther officially published the German translation of the Latin Bible in 1534, allowing the average German person to interpret the scripture on their own.
