- Excuse me, but wouldn’t a study of the Septuagint use the Douay-Rheims Translation since the LXX is the source text for that Translation, as opposed to the Masoretic Text used by the ESV and some other translations used here? Being a LXX enthusiast, I will buy this resource despite the unfortunate Protestant confirmation bias in the available "see inside" preview: "But Jerome’s distinction would be undone by his Roman Catholic successors, who granted certain Apocryphal writings (mediated via the Vulgate) equal canonical status at the Council of Trent (1546)." Actually the Canon was established - including the Deuterocanon (misnamed as Apocrypha) - at the Synod of Hippo, 393 and repeatedly affirmed at Carthage (393, 397, 419); again in 1442 Council of Florence -- all preceding Trent and Magisterial in Authority. Therefore, St. Jerome was disagreeing here with Magisterium and was in error (his not being infallible as HMC is, by God). Pax Christi in regno Christi
- The projected publishing of this dearly desired soon-to-be-Verbum Resource (requested since 2020-03!), most edifying exhortations beg a question, please: Whence comes to Verbum the 1962 Lectionary of the Roman Rite the Vetus Ordo, commensurate with the one for the Novus Ordo Rite? Lord, that we may have utility for the 1962 Rite in the Homily Builder and Manager, please God! Verbum has stated that this was a planned publication years ago. How long, Oh Lord, how long?
- Unhappily, Verbum's Douay Rheims Bible resource is extremely lacking, being a non-interlinear, null-metadata Bible and is so inadequate as an "Enhanced for Verbum" resource. Please bring this Holy Bible to respectability commensurate with a digital resource in the penultimate digital Platform, Verbum. Pax Christi in regno Christi
- Good day. Can anyone provide a status on Verbum's updating its Douay-Rheims Translation, please? What are the plans (and timeline) to bring this Scriptural Gem to the status of the distinguished digital diadem which it deserves for the Glory of God and HMC? Pax Christi
- With today's advent of Verbum 37.0.667, its advanced subscription features and A.I. augmentations, The Douay-Rheims is in dire need of interlinear connectivity to the Vulgate and LXX MSS, along with a massive incorporation of metadata, including Catholic metadata along with ecumenical "non-sectarian" sources. This renown Translation of Holy Mother Church deserves a full upgrade. Pax Christi
- Ms. Sonja Corbitt’s piece, “What Bible Do Catholics Use? The Most Popular of the Approved” (https://blog.verbum.com/2024/08/what-bible-do-catholics-use/), lists the Douay-Rheims as the fourth most popular Translation. When is Logos Verbum going to overhaul the primitive text-only resource (no interlinear, no verse concordance linkage as in the RSV2CE, no surface texts no Encyclicals on Bible Study as traditionally included in Catholic Bibles, features as found in the Haydock D-R, or Bishop Challoner D-R, or other print resources) to a Bible worthy of it’s value to the Faithful and your Customers? Such a poor treatment of our Scriptural Patrimony in the current Resource as provided by Verbum is worthy of lamentation. Pax Christi in regno Christi
- Good day, please. The Clementine Vulgate with Reverse Interlinear doesn't include R.I. for the Books of Tobit or Judith. Please explain. Please repair. Thanks. Pax Christi in regno Christi
- This reverse interlinear aligns portions of the Vulgate Old Testament with corresponding portions of H.B. Swete’s edition of the Septuagint. The books of Judith and Tobit have no text alignment, as the versions from which they were translated are no longer extant.
- Good day, I just installed Logos/Verbum on my brand new iPad Pro M4 and have been installing resources and configuring the platform. While using the Factbook for biblical people, I noticed that the Family Trees from the Biblical People Diagrams dataset appears in the Media section, but are not available indicated by the popup “This book is not available.” Because the image is presented in the Media section of the Factbook, I thought that there was a configuration problem and consequently spent and inordinate amount of time trying to get the mobile platform to provide the Family Tree graphics that are presented. I finally called Support and was told that as an interactive, the dataset is not available on mobile platforms. Recommend that Logos add something to this effect in the “This book is not available.” popup; perhaps “This book is not available on the mobile platform.” would properly inform your customers. Thanks. Pax Christi in regno Christi
