Publisher's Description

▼▲

The Vulgate is significant not only as a translation of the Bible but also as a foundational text in the history of Christianity, influencing theology, liturgy, and culture in the Western world for centuries. Jerome set out to provide as accurate and consistent a translation of the Bible into Latin as possible. Most of the Old Testament books are Jerome’s translations from the Hebrew (as opposed to other Latin versions that were translated from the Septuagint).

The present volume of the Biblia Sacra Vulgata reflects the official Roman edition by Clement (1592), including the selection and order of biblical books, the absence of punctuation (per cola et commata), and (for the most part) the chapter and verse divisions. For all that, however, it is a new text, based on the careful study of the available manuscripts and indispensable for the academic study of the Latin Bible.

Review

▼▲
"Originally edited by Robert Weber in 1969 and revised for the fourth (1994) edition by Gryson, this is the standard critical edition of the Latin version of the Bible, the Vulgate. Manuscript readings are duly noted in the apparatus, and the two versions of the Psalms are printed on facing pages (with the left page going the Gallican Psalter, the one commonly associated with the Vulgate version). Noteworthy is the fact that the third and fourth books of Esdras are included in this edition, and placed after the Neu Testament (3 Esdras Vulgate = 1 Esdras Septuagint; 4 Esdras Vulgate = 2 Esdras Septuagint). —Recommended as a standard resource for biblical study." —International Review of Biblical Studies
