Vetus Latina Database

Vetus Latina is the pre-Vulgate Bible versions of the Latin Church Fathers. Because there are a limited number of extant manuscripts that haphazardly cover the biblical text, the basic sources are biblical citations or allusions that are found within the writings of the Latin Fathers or Greek patristic authors who were translated at an early date into Latin.

This database contains every known citation, listed by book, chapter and verse of the Bible.

To see all variants for a particular verse on a single page, click on the "Einzebild" button after the Biblical book, chapter, and verse are chosen.
