Is anyone aware of a Catholic Edition RSV bible online that’s free? The only online bible I know to be Catholic lives at ewtn.com 🙂

Is there a free online copy of the Ignatius Bible?

Thanks!
 
It is a Protestant site but there is a Douay-Rheims with deutrocanonicals (along with a bunch of Protestant versions) here:

www.unboundbible.org

They also have original language versions which are neat.

Try etext.virginia.edu/rsv.browse.html this is RSV with deuterocanonical and apocrapha listed at the bottom of the page…the deuterocanonical are called “apocrapha” on this site (not Catholic) but it is RSV.

The RSV is also online at:

umich.edu: Revised Standard Version

Both of these online RSV Bibles have the following listed as “apocrypha”.

1 Esdras
2 Esdras
Tobit
Judith
Additions to the Book of Esther
Wisdom of Solomon
Wisdom of Jesus Son of Sirach
Baruch Letter of Jeremiah
Prayer of Azariah
Susanna
Bel and the Dragon
Prayer of Manasseh
1 Maccabees
2 Maccabees
3 Maccabees
4 Maccabees
Psalm 151
 
As far as I know these are the approved versions for Catholics:
  • New American Bible (NAB)
  • Revised Standard Version (RSV)
  • The Ignatius Bible (which is the Revised Standard Version, Catholic Edition (RSV-CE)
  • Douay Rheims
  • Navarre
  • The Jerusalem Bible
I have found some online and some not.

RSV (Revised Standard Version)
quod.lib.umich.edu/r/rsv/browse.html
-No search feature and no footnotes

and EWTN
ewtn.com/devotionals/biblesearch.asp
-It has the footnotes but…you have to know what verse you are looking for, you can’t
just do a search like you can on some of the other sites for a certain passage if you
don’t already know where to find it.

The Ignatius Bible (which is the Revised Standard Version, Catholic Edition)
RSV-CE (Revised Standard Version, Catholic Edition)
geocities.com/sacra_scriptura/eng_bible_index.html
-It has a search but no footnotes.

Anyone know where to find the 2nd Edition online? It would be the RSV-CE, 2nd Edition.

New Jerusalem Bible
catholic.org/bible
-Search but no footnotes

NAB (New American Bible)
vatican.va/archive/ENG0839/_INDEX.HTM
-Search and footnotes
and
usccb.org/nab/bible/index.htm
-Search and footnotes

The Douay Rheims
drbo.org
-Search and footnotes

Douay-Rheims Translation
Challoner Revision
ccel.org/c/challoner/douayrheims/dr.html
-No search or footnotes
 
and EWTN
ewtn.com/devotionals/biblesearch.asp
-It has the footnotes but…you have to know what verse you are looking for, you can’t
just do a search like you can on some of the other sites for a certain passage if you

Just be aware that EWTN site’s missing chapters 27-36 in Numbers
and chapters 3-12 in Ecclesiastes, and these are books of the Protestant Canon:confused: oh well, at least they tried…

Nope, AllHers, there’s no RSV2CE on Internet, probably due to Ignatius’ Copyright (after all, the purpose of such is so that the “authors” of this transl. need compensation for their work)
I’m happy that Scepter hasn’t come after Jmom’s site in HongKong (the geocities site you posted aboue)
(btw her RSVCE isn’t Ignatius’ classic blue transl. it’s in fact Scepter’s transl. which has mixed elements of the blue Iggy and the Protestant1971, mostly by accident as Mmortal, Porthos, or Manfred can tell you

Hey, Igg, where’s the RSV3CE already?!😛
