Isaias — Chapter 11
These annotations are from the original 1609 Douay Old Testament, the first complete English Catholic Bible translation, produced by English scholars in exile at the English College of Douai. The archaic spelling is preserved.
This content was digitized from the original 1609 Douay (Old Testament) and 1582 Rheims (New Testament) print editions by OCR. The OCR process sometimes confused print page numbers with verse numbers, and may have assigned annotations to the wrong chapter. Chapter and verse labels on this page reflect the OCR output from the original print pagination and may not correspond to canonical Scripture chapter/verse numbers. For canonical reference, consult a standard Douay-Rheims edition. The annotation texts themselves are authentic 1609/1582 Douay-Rheims content.
Verse 1
The Blessed Virgin. Christ our Saviour replenished with the seven guifts of the Holie Ghost, of whose infinite plenitude his servants participate as it pleaseth his divine spirit to impart.
Verse 10
Christ after his death, which to the world was ignominious, would be gloriously buried by very honourable persons, Joseph and Nicodemus, with abundance of most precious spices. Christs sepulchre still also remaineth glorious, honoured even by the Turkes: much more by Catholike Christians.
