Perhaps I should have explained, the Biblia Sacra that I picked up was the Louvain Rescension - 1590. The font is, on a good day, smaller than 6 point and not user friendly. So much for my feeble Latin voyage into the antiquities...

My version was published by Samuel Bagster & Sons, and as usual, I got it at the Canadian Bible Society (we have a good store of the CBS that's right on the edge of the U of Alberta campus), but most Christian bookstores will carry it. It uses modern Roman script, so isn't hard to read. Noel Bennion wrote: > Geoff, > > I use the Interlinear Bible by Jay P. Green with the The Strongest Strongs > Concordance.
