We're making progress. There was no earlier English translation because the Englishman Wycliffe and his buddies wrote the Bible.
Now pay attention: There were a number of assorted manuscripts floating around. Even the Vulgate was written by Englishmen as a gift to the Pope. But it was Wycliffe and his buddies that wrote the Bible as we now know it. After that everyone else conformed to Wycliffe's version and they updated the language over time and even added some new ideas. As I referenced before, the Pope who wrote his version added about 2,000 deviations.
Well I'm confused.
You appear to be arguing that there was no English translation of the Bible until the Bible was translated into English?
Isn't that, kind of, obvious?
You do accept that there were versions of the bible in other languages before that date don't you?
