	DOUAI - LoveToKnow Article on DOUAI
		Douai is situated in a marshy plain on the banks of the Scarpe which intersects the town from south to north, and supplies water to a canal skirting it on the west.
		Douai is the seat of a court of appeal, a court of assizes and a suhprefect, and has a tribunal of first instance, a board of trade-arbitrators, an exchange, a chamber of commerce and a branch of the Bank of France.
		Douai, the site of which was occupied by a castle (Castrum Duacense) as early as the 7th century, belonged in the middle ages to the counts of Flanders, passed in 1384 to the dukes of Burgundy, and so in 1477 with the rest of the Netherlands to Spain.

	Douai Bible - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Douai Bible, also known as the Rheims-Douai Bible or Douay-Rheims Bible, is a Catholic translation of the Bible from the Latin Vulgate into English.
		The center of English Catholicism was the English College at Douai, in France, founded (in 1568) by William Allen, formerly of Queen's College, Oxford, and Canon of York, and subsequently cardinal, for the purpose of training priests to convert the English again to Catholicism.
		The Douai-Rheims Bible, however, achieved little currency even among English speaking Catholics until it was substantially revised between 1749 and 1752 by Richard Challoner, an English bishop, formally appointed to the deserted see of Debra.

	Douai - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Douai is a town and commune in the north of France in the département of Nord, of which it is a sous-préfecture.
		Under the Patronage of Phillip II, when Douai belonged to the Spanish Netherlands a University of Douai was founded, which recent studies are coming to view as an important institution of its time.
		It was prominent, from the 1560s until the French Revolution, as a centre for the education of English Catholics escaping the persecution in England, and connected with the University were not only the English College, Douai, founded by William Allen, but also the Irish and Scots' colleges, and Benedictine, Franciscan and Jesuit houses.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Douay Bible
		In the year 1578, owing to political troubles, the college was temporarily transferred from Douai (which was then in the dominions of the King of Spain) to Reims, and during its sojourn there, in 1582, the New Testament was published, and became consequently known as the "Rheims Testament".
		The Old Testament was delayed by want of means, until the whole Bible was eventually published in two quarto volumes, in 1609 and 1610, by which time the college had returned to Douai, and the recommendation was signed by three doctors of that university.
		Although the Bibles in use in the twentieth century by the Catholics of England and Ireland are popularly styled the Douay Version, they are most improperly so called; they are founded, with more or less alteration, on a series of revisions undertaken by Bishop Challoner in 1749-52.

		This was not the first Bible to be authorized by the throne of England, and it was never even accepted by King James himself, but only called authorized because it was authorized to be printed.
		This Bible was a compromise between Protestant and Roman Catholic Bible teams in 1973 and was meant to be used among both denominations.

	The Bible
		If the Bible is myth then it needs to be exposed as such, but if it is true, then it needs to be heeded and obeyed.
		The discovery of additional Bible manuscripts not available to King James translators and the inevitable change of the English language prompted the publication of other versions that would be more readable and accurate.
		THE LIVING BIBLE of Kenneth Taylor is a paraphrase rather than a translation and reworks the original in an effort to capture the intent of the original writers.

	ENGLISH BIBLE TRANSLATIONS Curt Daniel
		Small parts of the Bible were translated or paraphrased from Latin into early Anglo-Saxon by the Venerable Bede and Caedmon in the 8th and early 9th centuries, but very little remains of their work.
		THE DOUAI BIBLE (or Rheims-Douai, 1582) was the first Roman Catholic English translation, mainly to counteract the various Protestant versions.
		When Moody rejected it, he self-published it, sold over 40 million complete Bibles, has become wealthy (but has set up a foundation with the profits to distribute the translation), and lost his voice as a result of what he himself thinks might be because he tampered with God's Word.

	SHAKESPEARE AND THE BIBLE
		Shakespeare, born in 1564, probably was exposed to the Great Bible, the Bishop's Bible, and the Geneva Bible.
		Yet his familiarity with the Bible neither means he always uses it in a religious sense nor that he was a Christian--it is never good literary criticism to take the words of an author's characters and ascribe them to the author.
		In brief, it may be said that Shakespeare's view of human life in neither more nor less than the Biblical view with the imperfections of the OT supplemented by the teaching and life of Christ in the NT.

		In the Geneva Bible this becomes: "Her wayes are wayes of pleasure and all her paths prosperitie." In the King James Version the verse is given as: "Her wayes are wayes of pleasantnesse, and all her paths are peace".
		The Bible they produced was meant to be a standard Bible, in the King James tradition, for readers and speakers of English.
		Translation of the Bible has a history here often as long as the history of the written language — and this has closed or bridged (or seemed to do so) the gap between texts from ancient Palestine, and translations into major western languages.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Gregory Martin
		In preparing the translation he was assisted by several of the other great scholars then living in the English College at Douai, but Gregory Martin made the whole translation in the first instance and bore the brunt of the work throughout.
		In the meantime, Gregory Martin left the house of the Duke of Norfolk, and crossing the seas, presented himself at Dr. Allen's College at Douai as a candidate for the priesthood, in 1570.
		The need of a Catholic translation of the Bible had long been felt, in order to counteract the various inaccurate versions which were continually quoted by the Reformers, and as Allen said, to meet them on their own ground.

	Ecclesia Militans: Where we got the Bible
		And all this she does, (so we are told), because she knows that her doctrines are absolutely opposed to and contradicted by the letter of God’s written Word — she holds and propagates dogmas and traditions which could not stand one moment’s examination if exposed to the searching light of Holy Scripture.
		The people eagerly gazing upon the open Bible, saw they had been befooled and hoodwinked, and been taught to hold ‘for doctrines the commandments of men’, and forthwith throwing off the fetters, and emancipating themselves from the pure truth of the Word of God as set forth in Protestantism and Protestant Bibles.
		Finally it occurred to one of them to test whether it really was, as the King had said; and of course he discovered that the thing was a joke; the fish weighed exactly the same dead or living, and all the time the Merry Monarch had been ‘having them on’.

		Eight thousand copies of one Bible were printed and bound in Ireland in 1716 before it was discovered that the command, in John, to "sin no more," had come out as "sin on more," a directive with somewhat more appeal to chronic sinners.
		Or "The Standing Fishes Bible" of 1806, which tells us, in Ezekiel, "And it shall come to pass that the fishes shall stand upon it." As much as one hates to dispel that lively image of our finny friends standing upright on their tails, it must be disclosed that the right word is fishers.
		There are, for example, two "Bug Bibles." Miles Coverdale's Bible of 1535 has earned that creepy sobriquet; and so has the Bible printed in Antwerp two years later as the translation of a certain Thomas Matthews, which was probably a pen name for one John Rogers.

	The Challoner Revision of the Douai Bible
		Richard Challoner (1691-1781) was a Roman Catholic Bishop in England who prepared several extensive revisions of the Rheims and Douai Bible between 1749 and 1777.
		The "Challoner-Rheims" remained the standard Catholic English Bible until the publication of the Confraternity version in 1941.
		They can as little be said to be made on the basis of the Douay as on the basis of the Protestant version.

	Douai Abbey - The Monastery of St Edmund, King and Martyr, England.
		This town is famous for having been a refuge for English Catholics in penal times, and from it emerged the Douai-Rheims Bible as well as a host of priests to serve the persecuted Church in England.

		But, now that the Bible was available in the language of the people—the extent of their ignorance was becoming embarrassing.
		When they are preaching to the unlearned and are obliged on the spur of the moment to translate some passage into the vernacular they often do it inaccurately and with unpleasant hesitation because either there is no vernacular version of the words, or it does not occur to them at the moment.
