The Douay-Rheims Bible, a Reproduction of the 1899 Edition of John Murphy Company

An overview of Tan Books' Douay-Rheims Bible. I contrast this modern, revised Douay-Rheims with the original. If you have no interest in Catholic Bibles, but want to know whether Westcott and Hort's "New Age" New Testament reflects a Catholic bias, scroll forward to the 19 or 20 minute point and watch from there. The video compares the 1881 Revised New Testament (influenced by Westcott & Hort's Greek), the Douay-Rheims, and the KJV in several passages.
