This article appears in Volume V15, Page 535 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: JEE-JUN
JUD, LEO (14821542) , known to his contemporaries as Meister Leu, Swiss reformer, was born in
Alsace
  and educated
at Basel, where after a course in
medicine
  he turned to the study of theology. This
change
  was due to the
influence
  of Zwingli whose colleague at Zurich Jud became after serving for four years (15181522) as pastor of Einsiedeln. His
chief
  activity was as a translator; he was the leading spirit in the
translation
  of the Zurich Bible and also made a Latin version of the Old Testament. He died at Zurich on the r9th of June 1542.
