J'ai le plaisir de présenter demain, vendredi 31 janvier à 11h, une communication intitulée « Ut alii dixerunt : la comparaison de traductions bibliques, un outil exégétique des Pères de l’Église », centrée sur le commentaire sur Job du prêtre Philippe, disciple de #saintJérôme #Vulgate
Cette présentation aura lieu dans le cadre du séminaire Biblindex, à Lyon (HiSoMA), mais sera aussi accessible à distance.
The Vulgate is the Latin language translation of the Bible going back to St Jerome (c. 342-420). A work of exquisite importance for the history of Christianity and the dissemination of the Bible, it still remains in official use.
The version reviewed in my latest post is a wonderful facsimile of the so-called Sixto-Clementine Vulgate, originally published in Belgium in 1901.

Reading chapters 1-4 of #Genesis in #Hebrew, one is struck by the abrupt shift from calling God Elohim (1:1-2:3) to YHWH Elohim (2:4-3:32, except the serpent) to just YHWH (chap. 4). Such shifts persuaded scholars there were different documents.
But how stable are these differences across the different witnesses?
It first must be acknowledged that the #Latin #Vulgate often omits "God", to avoid too much repetition.
