I have backed up versions of 11.1 and 11.2.1 if someone wants me to e-mail them with attachment.


In Topic: Itala Bible (Waldensian)

30 December 2017 - 05:45 AM

I recently saw some research that was being done on an old commentary that quoted from old Italian. That is, Latin older than Jerome's Vulgate. I haven't studied it in depth myself, but I've wondered whether it could be representative of the old Itala. It's not the Bible itself, but the commentary which quotes from it. It's not the perfect answer, but it is fascinating. You can find it here:

Of course, a lot of folks are distracted by the commentary, and think that is what's so great about this find. The commentary is largely allegorical in approach, which is not surprising for the time and place of its production. The commentary is entirely tertiary to this discovery.

I've been considering doing a comparison study between the quoted portions of the Bible to Jerome's Vulgate and the foundational Greek, but haven't taken the time, yet.
