I'VE have shown that the Catholic Church does
not prohibit the reading in private or in the family
circle of the Word of God. The only version. now

What will be found is of the numerous editions
of the Douay Bible. whose use is. as we have

editions represents the text more faithfully than
the Protestant version, which goes back only to

have also proted largely by the sharp criticism of

tains eighty verses of preface. narrative and can't

Catholic edition has borrowed ninety-four words
