Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers, Ser. II, Vol. VI:
Prefaces.: Books of Solomon.

Early Church Fathers  Index     

Books of Solomon.

This is addressed to Paula and Eustochium. Jerome describes the numerous emendations he has had to make in what was then the received Latin text, but says he has not found the same necessity in dealing with Ecclesiasticus. He adds, “All I aim at is to give you a revised edition of the Canonical Scriptures, and to employ my Latin on what is certain rather than on what is doubtful.”


Next: Tobit and Judith.
