The Holy Bible

What it's about

The Clementine Vulgate — Jerome's Latin Bible in the 1598 edition that served the Western Church for four centuries, the text behind the Douay-Rheims. Both testaments in Latin (its Esther and Daniel carry the longer chapters of the Latin tradition), verse for verse beside every translation on the shelf.

Who it's for

- Readers of the Douay-Rheims who want the Latin behind it - Students of ecclesiastical Latin - Anyone comparing the Latin tradition with the Hebrew and Greek
