About the Translation The Latin Testament Project Bible is a translation of The Vulgate, the Latin language version of the Bible constructed by Saint Jerome between 382 and 405 AD. The work translates Biblia Sacra Iuxta Vulgatam Versionem, Fourth Revised Edition, published by the German Bible Society in Stuttgart. In the process of translation, the work has been compared and corrected using 1.LXX Septuaginta (LXT) (Old Greek Jewish Scriptures); 2. Authorized Version (KJV) - 1769 Blayney Edition of the 1611 King James Version of the English Bible. 3. The Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition. |
About the Order of Books The Latin Testament Project Bible subdivides the ancient text as follows: The Old Testament section follows the division in Jewish tradition between Torah, Nevi’im, and Kethuvim. As such, the order of books varies slightly from the order found in most English Bibles. The Apocrypha includes those chapters and books that were included in The Vulgate, but were not included in the Masoretic text upon which the Authorized "King James" Old Testament was based. These books have been left out of many Protestant editions of the scripture. The New Testament follows the consensus order. |
