More DescriptionThe Douay-Rheims Bible is an English translation of the Latin Vulgate, which is a 5th century Latin translation by St. Jerome from the original Greek, Hebrew, and Aramaic Scriptures. The Latin Vulgate was the standard Bible of the Church for over a thousand years. The Douay-Rheims Bible was published in 1609, and is considered by many to be the most accurate English translation of the Bible! This volume has the Scripture text and all the footnotes in modern spelling, with no word changes or phrase changes. It has been kept as close to the original as possible. There are many great footnotes, and they are very traditional and loaded with quotations from the Early Church Fathers. In this volume on St. Mark there is an additional highly exhaustive cross-reference in the back of the book that has every single place in the Gospel of Mark that is also mentioned by the other Gospel writers!
