The owner has entrusted his possessions to the steward to supervise and manage, and has the right to demand an accounting from the steward at any time. God is the Owner of this world and all that is in it. “The earth is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.” (Ps. 24:1). He owns us because He created us - in His own image. He made man a little lower than the angels, and crowned him with glory and honor. (Ps. 8:5). But man fell from this high estate.

Defying the law (but only after he had been refused official per- mission), he began translating from the Greek, just as Luther had. By August 1525 his translation of the New Testament was complete.
