Background

Jerome was born as Caesaria Maritama, to Basilius Pamphili ("Basil the Great"), son of Eusebius of Caesaria. His birthplace is susually given as Stridon, Dalmatia (Croatia) largely to hide his pedigree as a son of a very ancient dynasty dating to the beginning of the "creation" of christianity.

At the age of 13, Jerome went with his father who was called to Rome in 360 under the reign of Pope Liberius. In Rome, Jerome was introduced to leading Christian rhetorical teacher named Aelius Donatus and spent some time with him. It is probable that Jerome attended the Council of Constantinople in 360 with his father, although no accurate record of such journeys remain, including the fact that the name of his father was deliberately changed from Basil to "Bonosus" in later centuries.

However, upon the ascendency of Damasus to the Papal throne in 366, Basil left Rome wih his son Jerome. Instead of continuing his family duties, it appears that Jerome set off on his own tour of the world, earning his keep as a translator and scribe for various noble families and courts.

One of the lasting impacts of his years of travel and pleasure appear to have been his appreciation of the lack of complete copies of the official Nicene New Testament scriptures completed by his grandfather. In many cases, Christian clergy had reverted to heretical texts of earlier sects, or only parts of gospels as no uniform scripture existed.

Sometime after 370, Jerome returned to Rome, this time with an original copy of his father's Greek manuscript of the official Nicene New Testament, older Greek texts of the Jewish scriptures and possibly some of the older scrolls held by his family.

Pope Damasus I immediately appointed Jerome a Cardinal and as head of a project to design once and for all an official text of Holy Scripture for the Vatican to enable the various heresies developed by Rome could be accomodated. Jerome agreed and set about constructing the Vulgate - the first complete Bible.

Writing the Vulgate was a significant task. The discovery of the oldest known Bible called the "Sinaiticus" from the mid 4th Century has provided a rare insight into just how much of the Vulgate contradicts the first official Greek Bible issued by Constantine after the 1st Council of Nicaea.

On forensic comparison of just the New Testament between the Vulgate created by Jerome and the Sinaiticus Bible (almost certainly an original of the official Constantine Nicene Bible), there was discovered approximately 14,800 editorial alterations.

Of importance is the fact that the Sinaiticus carries three Gospels approved by the Nicaea Council but rejected unilaterally by Jerome and Pope Damasus: the Shepherd of Hermas (written by two resurrected ghosts, Charinus and Lenthius), the Missive of Barnabas and the Odes of Solomon.

Nor is there any reference to a "Virgin Birth" of the Resurrection of Jesus in the original official Bible of the Church. It is possible that Jerome's 1st Vulgate did not include these forged doctrines either and they were added in subsequent major revisions of the gospels.

In another example, the modern Vulgate version of the Gospel of Luke contains a staggering 10,000 more words than the same Gospel in the Sinai Bible.

On these few verifiable facts alone, the Vulgate cannot in anyway be considered reliable to ancient Pauline, nor Boethusian nor Christian texts and nothing it contains should be considered reliable other than being a complete forgery for the benefit of Pope Damasus.

Jerome appeared to have enjoyed the diplomatic life so well in Rome that he quickly became known as an insatiable pursuer of noble women, having been named as a party in a number of scandalous affairs including widows Marcella and Paula, with their daughters Blaesilla and Eustochium.

But in 384, upon the death of Pope Damasus, Jerome fell out of favour, especially on account of the controversial views of his family. In the same year Jerome returned to Caesaria.

He died in Jeruslem in 420.
