    He is also the saint we need to clean up the many sins in the hierarchy now. St. Jerome, pray for us!

    My favorite of his writings and perhaps of all the Church fathers is his introduction to his refutation of Helvidius which concludes with “Helvidius who has not yet learnt to speak will at last learn to hold his tongue “. Maybe too harsh?….. but he was defending the honor of Our Lady.

In this series I’m narrating events and miracles from the splendid life of Don Bosco. St John Bosco used to perform a miracle almost every day, through the intercession of Mary Help of Christians. From the lives of saints we can learn how to love God more and draw closer to him. Thank you.

    Ambitious, too. Quasten says Jerome expected to succeed St Damasus as Pope. In open-air preaching at Speakers Corner and in apologetics work, I find Jerome to be the premier Father to whom protestants seek to appeal when challenging us on the Deuterocanon. Not his fault, of course.

      That was St Peter, the fisherman. St Paul was famous for being highly educated stern Pharisee and relentless persecutors of the early Church - until he had an Epiphany on the road to Damascus. St Peter was a short fuse. Remember how he drew out his sword and cut off the ear of the high priest's guard who came to arrest Jesus ? Or how he passionately swore never to betray Jesus only to do so three times within just hours from the Last Supper?

    Isn’t Jerome the saint who went to the Pharisees for the Old Testament cannon ?
    Pharisees were apostate and not following the commandments of the Lord according to Jesus himself.
    The true keepers of the law and scripture were exiled.
    The Levites specifically the line of Aaron were to be high priests and the line of Judah was to rule. This was not the case during this time period which makes them apostates.
    The high priests (line of Aaron) wouldn’t change or allow the Hellenistic views in so they were exiled and the Pharisees and Sadducee’s were put in charge as was Herod who was not from the davidic lineage or even a descendant of Judah.
    Zachariah was a high priest most probably of the line of Aaron as Gabriel spoke to him in the temple and sent his 5 year old son John (the baptist) to live in the desert. Where John preached was only a couple miles from Qumran, odd??
    No where in the dead seas scrolls do you ever see the word essene. Why is that? Because they were not essenes they were the exiled high priests and that is how they refer to themselves in the Dead Sea scrolls.
    John the Baptist was sent to the dessert to live with the exiled priests were he learned the true commandments and law of the Lord to prepare the way.
    Seek and you shall find.

    I'm not a big fan of jerome. St. Pope Damasus I commissioned jerome in A.D. 382, to translate the New Testament and Old Testament from Greek into Latin. jerome decided he knew better and used a Hebrew proto-Masoretic Old Testament instead of the Septuagint. This is why all modern bibles use the corrupted Masoretic text. For example, look at Acts 7:14 and compare it to Genesis 46:27 in your modern bible and the Septuagint. You will see one of many clear examples of corruption that came from the Masoretic text. Even St. Augustine begged jerome not to do this...
