The writer of this Bible
was Francisci Vatabli (also: Franciscus Vatablus or François
barrel-able one). He lived from 1485 until 1547 and was an important
French Hebraist and Theologian.
In this Bible two translations are placed beside each
other. On the left side the Latin Vulgate and on the right
side the Latin translation by Santes Pagnino. Santes Paginio
lived from approximately 1466 until 1541. He was a dominican,
prominent orientalist and a Bible translator. He worked 25
years on his word for word Latin translation of the old and
new testament, using the original Jew and Greek text.
