Editing Vulgate (section)

=== Deuterocanonials===
[[Book of Wisdom|Wisdom]], [[Book of Sirach|Ecclesiasticus]], [[Books of the Maccabees|1&nbsp;and 2&nbsp;Maccabees]] and [[Book of Baruch|Baruch (with the Letter of Jeremiah)]] are included in the Vulgate, and are purely ''Vetus Latina'' translations which Jerome did not touch.<ref name="Stuttgart">{{Cite book|title=Biblia Sacra iuxta vulgatam versionem|publisher=[[Deutsche Bibelgesellschaft]]|others=Robert Weber, Roger Gryson (eds.)|year=2007|edition=5|location=Stuttgart|page=XXXIII}}</ref>

In the 9th&nbsp;century the ''Vetus Latina'' texts of Baruch and the Letter of Jeremiah were introduced into the Vulgate in versions revised by [[Theodulf of Orleans]] and are found in a minority of early medieval Vulgate ''[[wiktionary:pandect#Noun|pandect]]'' bibles from that date onward.<ref name="Bogaert 2005 286–342" /> After 1300, when the booksellers of Paris began to produce commercial single volume Vulgate bibles in large numbers, these commonly included both Baruch and the Letter of Jeremiah as the ''Book of Baruch''. Also beginning in the 9th&nbsp;century, Vulgate manuscripts are found that split Jerome's combined translation from the Hebrew of [[Book of Ezra|Ezra]] and the [[Book of Nehemiah|Nehemiah]] into separate books called 1&nbsp;Ezra and 2&nbsp;Ezra. Bogaert argues that this practice arose from an intention to conform the Vulgate text to the authoritative canon lists of the 5th/6th&nbsp;century, where 'two books of Ezra' were commonly cited.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Bogaert|first=Pierre-Maurice|year=2000|title=Les livres d'Esdras et leur numérotation dans l'histoire du canon de la Bible latin|journal=Revue Bénédictine|volume=110|issue=1–2|pages=5–26|doi=10.1484/J.RB.5.100750}}</ref>  Subsequently, many late medieval Vulgate bible manuscripts introduced a Latin version, originating from before Jerome and distinct from that in the ''Vetus Latina'', of the Greek Esdras&nbsp;A, now commonly termed [[1 Esdras|3&nbsp;Ezra]]; and also a Latin version of an Ezra Apocalypse, commonly termed [[2 Esdras|4&nbsp;Ezra]].
