Bible (DRV) New Testament
'Bible (DRV) New Testament' Summary
The Douay-Rheims New Testament is a translation of the Latin Vulgate, the authoritative version of the Bible for the Catholic Church. It presents the books of the New Testament, including the Gospels, Acts of the Apostles, Pauline Epistles, Catholic Epistles, and the Book of Revelation, in English. The translation aims for accuracy and faithfulness to the Latin Vulgate, and is characterized by its formal and archaic language. The Douay-Rheims Bible played a crucial role in shaping English Catholicism, offering a vernacular alternative to Protestant translations, and influencing the development of the King James Version. While it has been superseded by more modern translations, the Douay-Rheims version remains significant for its historical influence and its use among some traditionalist Catholic communities.Book Details
