Before there was a Bible in Latin, there was a man who gave everything—his comfort, his reputation, even his friendships—to bring God’s Word to the world. His name was Saint Jerome, the fiery scholar who lived in a cave in Bethlehem and produced the Vulgate, the most influential Bible translation in history.But Jerome was more than just a translator. He was a man of visions and battles: a brilliant youth haunted by a dream in which Christ told him, “You are not a Christian, but a Ciceronian.” He was a desert ascetic tormented by temptations, a teacher to noble Roman women who renounced luxury for Christ, and a rival to some of the greatest saints of his age—including St. Augustine. He fought heresies with his pen, clashed with bishops, survived attacks on his monastery, and poured his soul into Scripture until his last breath beside the cave of the Nativity.In this episode, you’ll discover: • Jerome’s childhood in Dalmatia and his restless pursuit of learning in Rome • His visionary dream that turned him from classics to Christ • His years of desert solitude and Hebrew study, wrestling with temptation and the Word of God • His stormy friendships and rivalries with Rufinus, Augustine, Paula, and Eustochium • The creation of the Vulgate, the Bible that shaped Christianity for over 1,000 years • His fierce controversies, mystical experiences, and his death near the manger of BethlehemIf you’ve ever wondered who gave us the Bible we know today—or what it means to live with relentless passion for God’s Word—you won’t want to miss this powerful story.🎙️ Tune in now and step into the cave with Saint Jerome—the saint who never backed down.
