Title: The Great Commentary of Rev. Fr. Cornelius Lapide
Post by: Hobbledehoy on July 17, 2011, 10:18:06 PM
Here are some English translations of the Great Commentary by the great Rev. Fr. Cornelius à Lapide. The translation was done by Anglo-Catholic scholars, but it is a pretty faithful version of the Latin text, with certain technical linguistic parts omitted I believe. Be sure to have your Douay-Rhemish version of the Holy Scriptures when reading these commentaries.

The Great Commentary upon St. Matthew (chs. 1-9) (http://www.archive.org/details/greatcommentaryo01lapi)

The Great Commentary upon St. Matthew (chs. 10-21) (http://www.archive.org/details/greatcommentaryo02lapi)

The Great Commentary upon St. Matthew (chs. 22-28) and upon St. Mark (http://www.archive.org/details/commentarylapide03lapiuoft)

The Great Commentary upon St. Luke (http://www.archive.org/details/greatcommentaryo04lapiiala)

The Great Commentary upon St. John (chs. 1-11) (http://www.archive.org/details/greatcommentaryo05lapiiala)

The Great Commentary upon St. John (chs. 12-21) and the Three Epistles of St. John (http://www.archive.org/details/greatcommentaryo06lapiuoft)

The Great Commentary upon the First Epistle of St. Paul to the Corinthians (http://www.archive.org/details/greatcommentaryo07lapiuoft)

The Great Commentary upon the Second Epistle of St. Paul to the Corinthians and his Epistle to the Galatians (http://www.archive.org/details/greatcommentaryo08lapiuoft)

These are the only English translations I was able to find. Loreto Publications is working on translating the entire Great Commentary, and these translations were used in their edition of the Great Commentary upon the Gospels, which are the only tomes they have published so far.

Happy reading!  :reading:
