The New Testament portion was published in Reims, France, in 1582. The Old Testament portion was published in two volumes thirty years later by the University of Douai. This translation was replaced by a revision undertaken by bishop Richard Challoner; the New Testament in 1749; the Old Testament in 1750. The Challoner revision of the Douay–Rheims is still often the Bible of choice of more traditional English-speaking Catholics.PUBLISHER: CATHOLIC WAY PUBLISHING
