Catholic English-Latin Diglot Bible (D-R and Vulgate) (with Direct Verse Jump)

This is the Holy Bible, which includes parallel texts of the Douay-Rheims (English) and Clementine Vulgate (Latin) translations of the Holy Scriptures.

The Douay-Rheims Bible was translated from the Latin Vulgate and diligently compared with the Hebrew, Greek, and Bible editions in other languages.

The Vulgate was translated by St. Jerome in late 4th-century, who was commissioned by Pope Damasus I in 382 to make a revision of the old Latin translations. By the 13th century this revision had come to be called the versio vulgata, that is, the "commonly used translation". The revision of the Vulgate was sponsored by Clement VIII in 16th century, which became known as the Clementine Vulgate of 1592. The Clementine Vulgate became the standard Bible text of the Roman Catholic Church until 1979, when the Nova Vulgata was promulgated.

Features of this version of the Catholic English-Latin Diglot Bible:

– Direct Verse Jump, a revolutionary new method to open the exact verse you need in mere seconds (see instructions in the book)
– two other ways to navigate between books and chapters: (i) using a hyperlinked table of contents; and (ii) pressing the joystick right or left to move between chapters of the Bible books. Once you learn all of the three navigation methods, you will be able to open any verse in your Kindle Bible as fast as (or even faster than) in your paper copy
– the complete text of the Douay-Rheims Bible and the Clementine Vulgate, including all of the deuterocanonical books
– correct chapter and verse numbering, which corresponds to the Vulgate (not the KJV)
– the texts of this electronic edition of the two translations have been painstakingly verified to be true to the paper editions
– the electronic transcription of the Clementine Vulgate was made available by Michael Tweedale and received approbation of the Bishops' Conference of England and Wales on January 9, 2006
– beautifully formatted
– easy to determine where you are in the Bible
– the traditional verse-per-line format
– as any Kindle book, the Catholic Diglot Bible is searchable; however, when you first install the file please wait for the Kindle to index the whole Bible (most of the time about 10 minutes; however, sometimes up to 8-10 hours). The file is large and it takes a long time to index. For this reason, the DVJ navigation method will be available only after the book has been indexed

NOTE: Many features of this publication will not work on Kindle 1, Kindle Fire, software Kindles such as Kindles for PC, iPad, iPhone, Blackberry or Android.
