- Summary:
- "This is an English translation, with introduction and notes, of the Latin texts of selected letters written by or to St. Jerome. (Most were written by him rather than to him.) These are letters that deal with biblical interpretation, which will be of interest to scholars of patristic exegesis. St. Jerome was born around 347 and died in 420 C.E. A Latin-speaking Christian priest and scholar, he spent most of his career in the monastery that he established in Bethlehem. He is known as the author of many essays, letters, and biblical commentaries, and especially as the translator of most of the Latin Vulgate Bible"-- Provided by publisher.
