Nova Vulgata
The ''Nova Vulgata'' (complete title: ''Nova Vulgata Bibliorum Sacrorum Editio'', ; abr. ''NV''), also called the Neo-Vulgate, is the official Classical Latin translation of the original-language texts of the Bible published by the Holy See. It was completed in 1979, and was promulgated the same year by John Paul II in '' Scripturarum thesaurus''. A second, revised edition was published in 1986. It is the official Latin text of the Bible of the Catholic Church. The ''Nova Vulgata'' is also called the New Latin Vulgate or the New Vulgate. Before the ''Nova Vulgata'', the Clementine Vulgate was the standard Bible of the Catholic Church. The ''Nova Vulgata'' is not a critical edition of the historical Vulgate. Rather, it is a text intended to accord with modern critical editions of the Hebrew and Greek Bible texts, and to produce a style closer to Classical Latin. History Elaboration of the text In 1907, Pope Pius X commissioned the Benedictine Order to produce as pure a version ...

Pontifical Abbey Of St Jerome-in-the-City
The Pontifical Abbey of St Jerome-in-the-City ( la, Abbatia pontificia sancti Hieronymi in urbe; it, San Girolamo in urbe) was a Benedictine monastery in Rome founded in 1933 for the purpose of creating a critical edition of the Vulgate. The abbey was dissolved in 1984; their critical edition of the Vulgate is only that of the Old Testament, Catholic deuterocanonicals included, and is known as the Benedictine Vulgate. History In 1907, the Vatican announced that the Benedictines had been assigned the task of creating a corrected edition of the Vulgate. In addition to the critical edition of the Vulgate, a series called '' Collectanea Biblica Latina'' was created to publish subsidiary findings from research on the Latin Bible. A ''motu proprio'' of 1914, ''Consilium a Decessore'', established a pontifical commission to oversee this work, which in 1926 was credited on the title page of the first published volume of the resulting edition, ''Biblia Sacra iuxta latinam vulgatam versio ...

Oxford Vulgate
The Oxford Vulgate (full title: ''Nouum Testamentum Domini nostri Jesu Christi latine, secundum editionem Sancti Hieronymi'', Translation, tr.: ''Latin New Testament of our Lord Jesus Christ, according to the edition of Saint Jerome'') is a critical edition of the Vulgate version of the New Testament produced by scholars of the University of Oxford, and published progressively between 1889 and 1954 in 3 volumes. History As a result of the inaccuracy of existing editions of the Vulgate, the delegates of Oxford University Press accepted in 1878 a proposal from classicist John Wordsworth to produce a critical edition of the New Testament. This was eventually published as ''Nouum Testamentum Domini nostri Iesu Christi Latine, secundum editionem sancti Hieronymi'' in three volumes between 1889 and 1954. Along with Wordsworth and Henry Julian White, the completed work lists on its title pages Alexander Ramsbotham. As preliminary work to the full edition, Wordsworth published the text ...

Stuttgart Vulgate
The Stuttgart Vulgate or Weber-Gryson Vulgate (full title: ''Biblia Sacra iuxta vulgatam versionem'') is a manual critical edition of the Vulgate first published in 1969. The most recent edition of the work is the fifth edition, from 2007.

The work has since continued to be updated, with a fifth edition appearing in 2007.

Vetus Latina
''Vetus Latina'' ("Old Latin" in Latin), also known as ''Vetus Itala'' ("Old Italian"), ''Itala'' ("Italian") and Old Italic, and denoted by the siglum \mathfrak, is the collective name given to the Latin translations of biblical texts (both Old Testament and New Testament) that preceded the Vulgate (the Latin translation produced by Jerome in the late 4th century). The ''Vetus Latina'' translations continued to be used alongside the Vulgate, but eventually the Vulgate became the standard Latin Bible used by the Catholic Church, especially after the Council of Trent (1545–1563) affirmed the Vulgate translation as authoritative for the text of Catholic Bibles. However, the ''Vetus Latina'' texts survive in some parts of the liturgy (e.g., the ''Pater Noster''). As the English translation of ''Vetus Latina'' is "Old Latin", they are also sometimes referred to as the Old Latin Bible,W. E. Plater and H. J.

Latin Psalters
The Latin Psalters are the translations of the Book of Psalms into the Latin language. They are the premier liturgical resource used in the Liturgy of the Hours of the Latin Rites of the Roman Catholic Church. These translations are typically placed in a separate volume or a section of the breviary called the psalter, in which the psalms are arranged to be prayed at the canonical hours of the day. In the Middle Ages, psalters were often lavish illuminated manuscripts, and in the Romanesque and early Gothic period were the type of book most often chosen to be richly illuminated. Versions The Latin Church has a diverse selection of more or less different full translations of the psalms. Three of these translations, the ''Romana'', ''Gallicana'', and ''juxta Hebraicum'', have been traditionally ascribed to Jerome, the author of the Latin Vulgate; however, the ''Romana'' has not been produced by Jerome. Two other translations, the Pian and Nova Vulgata versions, were made in the 20 ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
