The Douay-Rheims Version of the Holy Bible, translated between the years 1582 and 1610 and revised by Bishop Richard Challoner from 1749-1752, is the most accurate English translation of the Bible available today.
It was the only Catholic translation of Scripture commonly in use for over 200 years and we maintain that it is still the best and safest version of the Bible in English.
Translated with profound respect for every word, the beautiful style of the Douay-Rheims Bible will instill in the reader a deeper understanding of the Word of God. Annotations, references and an historical and chronological index make it convenient for study as well as meditation.

Douay-Rheims Bible, Paperback
For those who have an idea of the numerous Bibles out there from which one may select, the Douay-Rheims, in modern parlance, is the Real Deal of the Sacred Word of God, the absolute best. I could not believe this Treasure of treasures being offered by Tan at $5.00 per copy! I felt like the Good Thief stealing a Heavenly gift from the Cross. I bought four for family and friends, having earlier provided most with hardbound copies, and expect to buy more. This paperback pocketbook, 1408 pages, weighing 1 ¾ pounds, 5.5 x 1.25 x 8.13 inches, with good size font is the ABC ideal for auto, bed, church, and then some.

I very much enjoy reading
I very much enjoy reading my Douay-Rheims Bible. I bought it based on the recommendation of Dr. Taylor Marshall. I find reading it gives me a sense of confidence that I am reading an accurate, unabridged, un-manipulated interpretation of God's Word.
