We all know the Douay-Rheims Bible Challoner Revision is *the* Tradcath Bible par excellence in English, and some of us may know that the Torres-Amat is likewise in Spanish, but what about other languages, like German, for example?

When I started reading long sections of the Bible more I gained an appreciation for some of the modern translations tee bee haitch. A lot of them do sneak in leftist bullshit but sometimes the poetry of the translation is simply better. I mostly use DR or ESV

I'm a midwit althoughever
>>
>>25326275
Just look for whatever was translated from the Vulgate.

Is there anyway to get a free or very cheap Latin vulgate? Should I try emailing my local church

Catholics don't actually read the Bible, they just listen to whatever their priest says.

I’m Catholic. I’ve read the Bible cover-to-cover twice.

About Spanish Bibles, I am now reading the Straubinger one, I like it so far. Torres-Amat was a Jansenist, no idea if his Bible has some bias on it.
>>
>>25328553
Tell me about the Straubingner one.

I found the German TradCath Bible.

Get the Ignatius Study Bible. It explains a lot of the nuance in the translations.

I went to my local church and asked for any reading materials that they have, like the bible, cathechism, any books related to anything, lifes of saints, literally anything to read, and they essentially told me to go buy them in the store or fuck off.
>>
>>25330454
The Ignatius Study Bible doesn’t explicitly say the Earth was made in 4004 BC, unlike the Douay-Rheims.

That's too bad. The small Catholic parish I attend now has a bookshelves in the narthex with lots of free reading material, and the selection ia quite good IMO. You might not be in the position to do so now, but things like that sometimes just need a motivated individual (such as yourself) to make them happen. If the church is counting on their bookstore as a profit center, maybe there would be more resistance to the idea. Thankfully, in the age of the web, you have more than a lifetime of free material, and unfortunately, a lot of it is not readily accessible in print anyway.

>>25332201
They may not have anything, but I think most parishes would give you one for free if you were cash strapped. However, if you can afford a bible you should just buy one instead of begging for one. If you REALLY REALLY REALLY want one, cannot afford it(or it would be a major financial burden), and promise me that you'll read it every day, I will buy you an Ignatius Study Bible and The Confessions. I considered the Catechism, but it's really not something you read cover to cover, but use as a reference. For that, you can just look it up for free on the Vatican's website.

His what?

This is a little bit of a deviation from the thread topic, but I'm learning Spanish now. Aside from Torres-Amat, what's the best (and least-pozzed) contemporary Spanish translation? My intuition for Spanish is still rudimentary, and I don't want to end up accidentally sounding like the Spanish equivalent of King James English.

I'm not sure one exists. You have this edition, which is good, but it's not "very cheap."
https://www.amazon.com/Biblia-Sacra-Vulgata-Vulgate-Bible/dp/1598561782

Then you can look at various print-on-demand options. This one says it only contains the NT and the Psalms, but it also has a facing English translation (which could be helpful or not). You could look into self-printing.
https://www.amazon.com/Holy-Bible-Latin-English-Testamenti/dp/1635489792/

You can look on used book sites like eBay, but I don't think you're going to get a drastic discount, and you're going to have to trawl through a lot of listings that are Vulgate-based translations.

You could try writing to the address in pic related, but that advice was given over 60 years ago...

Yeah that's great, I'm never going there again after how I was treated. They can go fuck themselves with their golden candlesticks.

I am not a Christian but I liked to read the Bible occasionally because I just did. But one day while reading the OT I thought "this is the Early Life section on God" and I couldn't read a single line ever since. I open the book and my brain says stop, stop, this is poison, stop, anon stop, jews here, this is written by jews, stop reading and I stop. How did Christianity even get so popular when it's so jew-centric, ethnically and geographically? Is there a good argument from one of the smarter and better men than me who were devout Christians addressing the jewishness of Christianity and the Bible?

>>25333946
You're legitimately fucking retarded

>>25333949
>followers of God in the OT
>live 800 years, kangs, 27 sons from a harem of hot jewesses
>followers of God in the NT
>gang raped and martyred in their 20s
It's suspicious. Or is it something else? I'm sure it's full of jews in the Bible
>>
>>25333964
The Jews today are not the Jews of the Bible. They are essentially cosplay larpers who stopped obeying the commands of worship and instead pass around medieval scholastic commentaries at Temple. They're a derivative of a derivative of the Law.
Scripture itself teaches that Judaism ended in the first century AD. The fact anybody is still "Jewish" makes zero sense according to their own holy book.
So if "Jews" is your problem, then that's like saying that Final Fantasy spin-off Dissidia in the 2010s is the reason why you won't play Final Fantasy VI for the SNES.
If you read the Bible unbiased and plainly, you will likely have a disdain for modern "Jews" who call themselves Jews but aren't.

>>25333964
No I mean your schizophrenic (maybe actually schizophrenic: Go read about the official symptoms and think hard about whether they fit your life) obsession with the Jews as if they're magical elves who can mindfuck you with a poem they wrote about knowledge, or whatever, 3000 years ago. It's nonsense, if "they" were that powerful you wouldn't even be able to question them. Jews are just people like you.
