Title: The Bible -- in French
Product review: Cette version francaise est actuellement la traduction originale de la Bible de Jerusalem.This is a wonderful translation -- direct from the Latin Vulgate -- for French readers. French is my third language, and I'm not fully fluent, but the words are simple and there is not much difficulty in understanding the vocabulary. The language is poetic in places, and really flows wonderfully.The Jerusalem Bible (in English) was actually translated from this version. It is a great reading source for practicing your French language skills, the translation is well-respected (especially for its copious, detailed footnotes), and I have facilitated my study of the language by using an English Bible and this French one side by side.
