About this book

This book presents the New Testament portion of Saint Jerome's Vulgate Bible, as reconstructed by the German Bible Society. Each verse of the Latin original is followed by its English translation. St. Jerome, working between 383 and 405 AD, pulled together the various "Old Latin" versions of New Testament books and combined them with fresh scholarship still available at the time through sources since lost to the vagaries of history. Dr. Cunyus's version seeks to create the same terse translation as found in the Latin: no one word out of place and no extraneous vocabulary.
