Douay Rheims - Loreto Publications

[@louisrharmony]

Thank you for the great video! I love and appreciate your commitment to showcasing the Douay-Rheims in your videos. St. Benedict Press actually has a red letter version of the Douay-Rheims. Their low end options can be a little cheap but they have a $60 option that is quite nice. I pray that one day we can have a truly premium Douay-Rheims that can complete with the likes of Schuyler and Allan. God Bless.

[@williamearle6281]

Yeah I was excited for a moment about the new large print edition from Benedict press. But it's imitation leather. A couple of my imitation leather Bibles are already crumbling, The newer one is only from 2016, hardly ancient.

[@sirhamalot8651]

Loreto has such great books! They seem to pride themselves on printing unedited/un-revised editions of classic Catholic books. It's great to see the originals in print free from the hack & slash editing of the modernists.

[@douglasj2254]

I really appreciate that the Loreto Douay-Rheims has bold, somewhat large print and great paper. While the Baronius has leather over boards, and lots of folks give it praise, I found it disappointing with its small print and mediocre paper. I often read the Loreto New Testament, which has English and Latin side-by-side and excellent, thick paper. I wish there were more editions to choose from.

This was a helpful video. Thank you for comparing the two!

[@sarahdiana8934]

Thank you so much for this review, it helped me decide. I love the calm, clean page layout of this Bible and the bolder font.

Thank you for the video. Very informative.

[@jess96154]

Thanks so much for this review! I saw this Bible online and couldn't find much info on it.

[@tjmaverick1765]

I don't mind the longer videos. It helps move your channel to the front of my subscription banner.

[@skolsaw1080]

Thanks for that review Tim. I put one of those in my Amazon cart right after the review. More publishers need to make this translation just to give Baronius Press some competition.

[@mikehoward455]

I think you set a record Tim. 8:59??? 😂. Thank you for the review

[@NickyMetropolis1313]

My fiancee has that one from Loreto and I have the Angelus Press Douay Rheims. Angelus press is the SSPX Catholic publisher and they now sell other versions of the douay but the one I got some years ago doesn't seem to be available there any longer sadly. It's a little big however and I'm in the market for a more pocket size version of the scriptures. Interestingly enough, the breviary I use is from the Catholic ordinariate and the book is based on the 1600s book of common prayer which includes a complete lectionary based on the King James Bible. I believe this was approved under Pope Benedict. God bless and happy Easter dear friends

[@tedburns3089]

Is the breviary you use Divine Worship: Daily office?

[@NickyMetropolis1313]

@@tedburns3089 Yes it is. The commonwealth edition as opposed to the north American edition although i am an American

[@Proclivitytolife]

The paper on this one is indeed pretty good. I have been able to highlight without bleeding through, as long as one doesn't press needlessly hard.

[@cardbunny4317]

Thank you so much for Catholic Bible Reviews hopefully one day a premium will be in the works. Maybe cross style is Orthodox/Greek 🤔. Haydock is a great bible to own for the study notes !

[@anickelsworthbiblereviews]

I hope to have it one day. It’s a touch pricey.

[@nathanjohnwade2289]

The cross style does look like to be an Orthodox one.

[@terrysbookandbiblereviews]

I really like the font in this one. Because of this video I got a copy.

[@jamestrotter3162]

I have the St. Benedict Press edition of the Douay Rheims Bible in large print. The words of Christ are in red letter and I like it, but, I used to have the Loreto Publications Douay, and actually, I liked it better, and wish I still had it. Great review!

[@mazyarkanani6708]

I have that one too.. like it a lot but the ribbon is awful for shredding !

[@shredder9536]

I think I'll buy this one

[@HollywoodBigBoss]

You should do a video on the 1971 or 1989 TAN Books Douay-Rheims.

[@8polyglot]

Awesome, thank you!

[@terrysbookandbiblereviews]

Looks awesome!

[@LNR65]

I want to love this Bible so much, hardcover, two ribbon markers, beautiful design, and DR translation…but I’ve come across a few typos in the Psalms and one so far in Gospel of John 😢

[@amptown1]

1:16 if you know, you know. Thank you for the video ☺️

[@justin_messer]

I have a Douay-Rheims red letter text edition. Without checking, I think it’s put out by Angelus Press?

[@brunonlinespace]

Fantastic review, thanks! It me helped decide not to get this one and stick to Baronious, thank you! I would prefer Loretto's hardcover instead of Baronious' flexible cover, but Loretto's larger size is not what I am looking for. Loretto's font for the main text may read possibly nicer, but I do not appreciate the change of font style from their headers to their main text. I like the fact Loretto adds prayers for before and after the reading of Scriptures, but Baronious includes 3 encyclicals as apposed to just 1. I do appreciate Loretto's better looking paper, but I am too fond of the gold trim of Baronious. Lastly, ads on a Bible? No, thanks :-)

[@gegaoli]

I like baronious press but i need something larger or easier to read.

[@Broken_ChainsM]

I can't tell from the video. Is there a difference in line spacing between the Loreto Douay Rheims and the large Baronius Douay Rheims?

[@anickelsworthbiblereviews]

Loretta is spaced a little better.

[@Broken_ChainsM]

@@anickelsworthbiblereviews thanks. One other question. Are there any Douay Rheims you know of with larger font or does it max out at 10/11 point font? I typically prefer my Bibles to be 12 pt font.

[@anickelsworthbiblereviews]

@Broken_ChainsM Baronius Press has three sizes. Small, standard, and MASSIVE. Ha ha. The big one has a pretty good size font. I reviewed it.

[@Broken_ChainsM]

@@anickelsworthbiblereviews ill give it a watch. Thank you.

[@gegaoli]

Which is easier on the eyes…Loreto or Baronious Press large? Can you underline in both without issues?

[@anickelsworthbiblereviews]

The Loreto has a bolder print. I wrote in the Baronius without any issues, but I have not written in the Loreto.

[@gegaoli]

@@anickelsworthbiblereviews Thanks for your feedback. Helpful

[@observingyt6159]

Just curious your thoughts on the Catholic church, seeing as you review Catholic Bibles? If it's ok to ask. I heard you mention you have a video discussing this but I could not find it

[@anickelsworthbiblereviews]

I discuss it a bit on my reviews of the Ascension Catechism and the Orthodox Study Bible. I would not consider myself in fellowship with the Catholic Church, however I feel it has been demonized unjustly as well.

[@milby5222]

Is it possible to buy this hardback bible and then have it rebound in leather?

[@anickelsworthbiblereviews]

It is indeed.

[@mb9484]

You scared me, I thought a 45 minute video was incoming 😅

[@anickelsworthbiblereviews]

Ha ha. Well almost nine minutes is TWICE as long as normal for me. Just wanted to offer fair warning.

[@williamearle6281]

I doubt anyone can help me but, I'm looking for a place that does decent bible leather or cloth hardback rebinding in Japan. Shipping back and forth to the US makes an already costly endeavor prohibitive.

[@anickelsworthbiblereviews]

I don’t know of any. Sorry.

[@somewhatreallycoolguy7439]

this looks like it'd be a great bible to rebind. probably moreso than the baronius press one honestly

[@anickelsworthbiblereviews]

Not sure. It would be nice if they’d release one with gilding.

I turned them off again because it is my channel and I can. Thank you.

[@kainech]

This almost got me to buy it. Then, at the end, you showed the advertisements. It's not fitting for a sacred book that will be ideally passed down to have advertisements that won't be relevant in half a decade. Publishers can advertise by including catalogues. It shouldn't be done in the Bible itself :(

[@anickelsworthbiblereviews]

I never really thought of it that way. But yeah, ads in a bible is sort of an odd choice.

[@pmlm1571]

this sounds a little like biblolatry to me. The notices are about pious books.

[@kainech]

@@pmlm1571 If you watch a livestream of a service or a mass, and they break in and put a commercial in for a pious book, does its being a pious book change the fact that it is a setting for which commercial advertisements are out of place? Advertisements and holiness are mutually cancelling things. The former is detrimental to the latter. It doesn't matter what's advertised.

[@kainech]

@@pmlm1571 Advertisements for anything are irreconcilable with sanctity. Advertisements for pious books shouldn't be in anything holy at all, not Bibles, not prayer books, not on icons, not on prayer cards, nothing. Ads, of any kind whatsoever, are antithetical to holiness and piety. They don't belong.

You Catholic Bible videos are as good as any bY a Roman Catholic. R. Grant Jones has more info, but his videos are also much longer than your videos. Your nickels worth is some reviewers' Silver Dollar's worth. I am not exaggerating, either. At least, not very much.

[@anickelsworthbiblereviews]

I appreciate that.

Loreto's are ugly ugly ugly. I had one and gave it away! It's an ugly facsimile, the end papers are ugly, the hardcover is cheap fake leather covering.
