Notes

The Douay Bible, published in 1854, is an English translation of the Latin Vulgate, primarily used by English-speaking Roman Catholics. This edition is part of the Douay-Rheims Bible, originally translated between 1582 and 1609 by Catholic scholars in exile in Douay and Rheims, France. The 1854 version includes revisions and annotations aimed at clarifying the text and aligning it more closely with Catholic doctrine, reflecting the ongoing efforts of the Catholic Church to provide an authoritative and accessible Bible for its English-speaking adherents.
