Tyndale was betrayed in Antwerp by a friend, Henry Phillips, in May 1535. He was imprisoned in Vilvoorde Castle near Brussels, accused of heresy. Trials for heresy in the Holy Roman Empire were carried out by special commissioners and the process dragged on for more than a year. In August 1536, he was condemned as a heretic, stripped of his priesthood and handed over to the secular authorities for punishment. On 6 October 1536 he was brought before officials in Vilvoorde town square and given the chance to recant. He refused. Tyndale was given a moment to pray and then strangled and burnt at the stake. Tyndale’s dying prayer was, ‘Lord, open the King of England’s eyes’... Within a year of his death, Tyndale’s dying hope was answered...

Tyndale was accused of heresy and imprisoned in the Castle of Vilvoorde.

He was sought by representatives of both the English King and the Pope. For a time, Tyndale managed to evade the authorities and occupied himself not only with the work of translating and writing, but with pastoral work among his fellow countrymen and women who had also fled religious persecution in England: “on Saturdays he walked Antwerp’s streets seeking to minister to the poor ( Christianity Today).” Tyndale’s legacy continues today.
