The Vulgate contains all of the books rejected centuries later by the [[Protestant Reformation]] as "[[Apocrypha|The Apocrypha]]".
The translation was the first into Latin based on the Hebrew rather than [[Septuagint|Greek version]] of the [[Old Testament]]. The '''Vulgate''' remained the standard for the [[Catholic Church]] for more than a millennium, and is now fully available online.<ref>http://www.fourmilab.ch/etexts/www/Vulgate/</ref><ref>http://www.sacred-texts.com/bib/vul/index.htm</ref>
