    Genesis 3:15 Invalidates All Non-Vulgate Translations (and Exalts the Douay-Rheims)

    I'm surprised I've never noticed this sooner... So, as we very well know, many Protestant "translations" of the Bible mistranslate Genesis 3:15. Most of these Protestant "translations" mistranslate Genesis 3:15 to mean "he" or "it," as we can see below. The problem with this is that the word in...

    Why Should You Read Only the Douay-Rheims Catholic Translation of the Bible?

    The Douay-Rheims Bible is a scrupulously faithful translation into English of the Latin Vulgate Bible which St. Jerome (342-420) translated into Latin from the original languages. The Vulgate quickly became the Bible universally used in the Latin Rite (by far the largest rite of the Catholic...

    Elon Moreh in Genesis 12:6 - Oak, plain or valley

    Genesis 12:6 states that that Abram crossed to Shechem and elon Moreh - the latter nowadays translated as the Oak of Moreh. I was reading the Vulgate, and reaching this verse I found "convallem illustrem" - the famous valley. Seeing Shechem, I was intrigued by this famous valley, but found my...

    Is there a straight Latin Vulgate to English translation?

    I was just wondering if anyone publishes an English translation that only uses the Latin Vulgate.
