More about the book

The book explores the intellectual conflict between Jerome and Augustine in the late fourth century regarding biblical translation. Jerome's choice to translate the Old Testament from Hebrew rather than the traditional Greek text sparked a debate over the authority of original texts versus established church texts. This tension reflects two enduring principles in biblical reception: the value of the "original" Hebrew manuscripts and the authority of the Septuagint. Their discourse highlights the foundational issues that continue to influence biblical interpretation today.
