St. Jerome and the Latin Vulgate

We may take reading the Bible in our native language for granted and make the assumption all people were able to do so since the time of Jesus, which is simply not true. We can thank Saint Jerome, whose feast we celebrate on Sept. 30, that we have the Old and New Testaments to read in the language of our choice.
