"The Vulgate, from which the Douay derives, not only resulted from manuscripts hundreds of years older than those used by King James' men but derived from a canon which the whole Church for 1600 years before Luther held to be Sacred. In fact, the Septuagint Greek Bible, the Bible used by Greek−speaking Jews and gotten together long before is the true index to the books which the pre-Christian Jews and all the first Christians held sacred. The Septuagint has the same books as the Vulgate and, in fact, it was used as a guide by the translators of the Vulgate 1200 years before the first Protestant was born and just about the time that the Jewish rabbis were deciding that they wanted no part of some of the texts their ancestors had venerated."
