DR. HAINES’ LECTURE

the Tula me.

The fourth lecture on -The Making of the Book," was delivered by Dr. Mattes last evening, bis topic being “Jerome and the Vulgate." A brief summary is given: After the I>ey of Pentecost Irmuala Ilona of the Bible were multiplied and coptoe made of Uatulaliuua the fourth century when a version war needed thal would be considered au thorlty, Jerome had an uuueual task before him to examine these-ver-inooe. and eapactally the-I.tllu veralena, and from every available source impart a version that would be sc eepted as being actually ttod’a Word. For bis day tie was a scbolar.having had a good sUrt In educational mat ten at home, and afterward being ecu! to Home to complete hi- studies. Pope llama.us gave him the task ul revising all the Eatlu translation* which he did with «*alu, t .klng care The remit of hla eltorl was “The Vul gate,” which fura tlwuaand years held sway as the autheutatlve version of Uod’g Book, aud was tb of nearly every version of the Scrip, tores lu the West. The books that the Peeloto Hyulac and the old Latin With the exception of Bl. Peter, are the aaae as we now bare In our New Taetameut and uo others. The Vulgate as we now have It not the translation'Just a* Jerome mm It. It has suffered greatly from olhi

It was not until I-jlc Dial ti„. etl of Trent made the Vulgate the ■daudard text of tire liible and if It had not been for Ibe corrupting lu flueueea that crept into It during ibe Middle Ages it would have exercl-ed s world wide influence up to today.
