However, it's important to note:
* It was published in 1517. While the manuscript was finished in 1516, it was printed and released the following year.
* It was written in Latin. While we often associate Erasmus with the "New Testament" in English, his paraphrase was originally written in Latin. English translations came later.
Therefore, the creation date of the first volume is 1516, but its publication date was 1517.
