Publisher's Description of Selections From the Vulgate Teacher Key
Selections from the Vulgate is a course in Biblical Latin translation that is perfect for Latin students who have completed a study of the Latin grammar. This Teacher Key contains answers to all exercises in the Student Workbook, which features ninety passages of prose and poetry, from Genesis to the gospels. Each reading is accompanied by vocabulary, grammar notes, and exercises.

skills your high school student has learned surrounding Latin and applies them
to translating Biblical texts. Suggested to be used after a thorough Latin
grammar. The completion of the Forms Series/Henle Latin 1 is
recommended. This self-paced course will look at 90 selections taken from St.
Jerome’s translated Bible from Genesis through the Gospels. Latin students will
be familiar with the parsing and analysis exercises as they are engaging in a
close reading of these scriptures. Vocabulary is pulled out for additional
study along with grammar notes for reminders. All text selections and space for
recording answers are provided in the Student Workbook.
Lessons are structured in 5 parts. It starts with the Latin
text taken straight from the Vulgate (usually 5-11 verses at a time). Following
the text are the selected vocabulary words for review and mastery and thirdly,
Vocabulary to Remember (new words to learn). The fourth part is the Grammar
Study which is a combination of mastery review and new concepts. Lastly, there
are the parsing and analysis questions for further reinforcement and
comprehension. Students will keep to
this sequence with each lesson (lectio) and follow it up by checking their work
against the Teacher Key.
Parents, no need to fret, you do not need to cram or brush
up on your Latin. The Teacher
