We are proudly offering the work of Mr. Michael Tweedale who has worked so diligently in putting the Clementine Text of the Latin Vulgate into electronic format, opening a wide variety of opportunities for printing and distribution. He has done great service by offering this excellent text, which is constantly updated for errors/discrepancies. (The version used in the printed books I offer was last updated March 2, 2020.)  Between the year 2002 and 2005 the text was entered into electronic format using a later printing of the Clementine text (published by BAC in Spain, edited by Colunga- Turrado, 1946 AD). It was checked against several older versions-notably two different editions, one by P. Hetzenauer 1914 AD and one by C. Vercellone 1861 AD. The electronic text was checked for errors multiple times and he continues to make corrections at the request of his readers. Rest assured- the text is as reliable and accurate as any other electronic text of the Holy Bible, all of which are susceptible to errors.  You can learn more about his work on his homepage. This text has received the mark of Ecclesiastical approval:

​

The Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales gives its approval
to the publication of Biblia Sacra juxta Vulgatam Clementinam.
Published with approbation.
CBCEW, 9th January 2006.
 

​

Also- the Vulsearch program Mr. Tweedale has developed is an amazing tool for studying the Holy Bible in Latin.  I highly recommend it.

 

​

  This is the simple, bare bones text of the Clementine Version of the Latin Vulgate, excellent for students of Latin, seminarians, or the laity alike. This is a 'no frills' edition offered in a clean and easy to read format. If you are a student of Latin-you won't fret about taking notes in these or marking them up. If you wear one out- buy another one!  I am offering it in FOUR different formats. The options below are live links for purchasing directly from the printer. ALSO- I may have several of these available to ship now, check my Site Storefront.

​

 

6" X 9" paperback- the most economical and portable

​

6" X 9" hardcover- still economical and portable, but a bit more durable/sturdy

​

8 1/2" x 11" paperback- larger pages, but will still go in your backpack!

​

8 1/4" X 10 3/4" hardcover- large and sturdy 

 

 NOTE: The print is a bit small in 6" X 9" edition. The feedback I have received has been positive and most people with reasonably good eyesight don't seem to have a problem with it. We suggest you view the sample page PDF offered below for this book and scale it to actual size on your screen to get an idea of what the print will look like in real life.  If you have difficulty with small print, choose one of the larger editions. Also- I can mail you physical sample pages of each size free of charge upon request. Email me for details churchlatin@gmail.com
