I’m looking forward to getting into it.

@@anickelsworthbiblereviews It’s very good! It’s cool that you’ve taken a liking to the Douay, it’s a great Bible and I love to see more people being aware of it! I hope one day an edition comparable to the quality of a Schuyler can be produced.

I understand what each group says it means. But what it actually means predates most of our understanding.

It depends who you consider to be God, the God of this world eg The Demiurge.

Just like the eyes represented in Ezekiel and Revelation (all knowing and all seeing).

My best jokes are completely accidental.

It’s a fascinating thing.

It is from Loreto Publishing.

I’ll have to go back and look, but I know I wouldn’t say it’s sewn unless I knew it was. I can’t see it listed anywhere so I must have either asked or saw it. I know their regular DR is heavily glued, but it is also sewn. It was hard for me to see the stitches, but they are there.

@@anickelsworthbiblereviews Thank you so much! I did actually actually call and after some time they did confirm it was sewn. So I'll take that and crack it open. I noticed as well on amazon someone claimed it was glued, but it might just be in the way it looks on the side. I know the "great adventure timeline" initial run pulled that where it looks sewn but was actually glued. They've since fixed that.

I haven’t.

I don’t know. I know there are Catholic tabs available, but I don’t know if Loreto provides any.

@@anickelsworthbiblereviews thank you

It’s certainly debated.

About two inches if memory serves me right. It’s a big one. About 8.5x11 footprint.

I’m not sure where you are talking about.

Mason bible…interesting.

While this may be a stretch, it’s an interesting thought.

We also have singular for the eye of God. The triangle also represents the Trinity of God. Psalm 32:8 NRSVC I will instruct you and teach you the way you should go; I will counsel you with *my eye* upon you. Deuteronomy 32:10 In a desert land he found him, in a barren and howling waste. He shielded him and cared for him; he guarded him as the *apple of **_his eye,_* Zechariah 2:8 For thus says the Lord of hosts, “After glory He has sent me against the nations which plunder you, for he who touches you, touches the *apple of His **_eye._* Psalm 17:8 “Keep me as the *apple of thy eye,* hide me under the shadow of thy wings.” Proverbs 7:2: “Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye.” We believers are the apple of God's *eye!* We are seen and known and are the object of His affection. God regards us as precious and beloved in His own sight, and wants to care for and protect us. Quote: The apple of the eye was a favourite idiom of the Old Testament writers to indicate something, and particularly a person, that one values above all other things. The phrase comes from a Hebrew expression that literally means *'little man of the eye.'* End quote. Eyes used metaphorically represent all seeing and all knowing as depicted in the visions of Ezekiel and John (Revelation). Zechariah and Revelation also speak of the *seven eyes of God,* (seven Spirits of God).

@@c.Ichthys I don't buy it. The all-seeing eye within a triangle is a pagan and occult image and does not need to be adorning our Bibles.

@@tiptupjr.9073 I understand your reticence, nonetheless that is just what Protestants say about the majority of Catholic symbols and holidays, and religious items as all from paganism. Even the star! To quote: The hexagram (six pointed star) is thought to have originated in Buddhism and was also used by Hindus. It was used by Muslims as a mystic symbol in the medieval period, known as the Seal of Solomon, depicted as either a hexagram or pentagram. End quote Now you and I can agree that this "pagan" symbol was and is a holy Godly symbol of the Jewish peoples: The Star of David. Now those modern "pagans" have confiscated our symbol of the r a i n b o w. I'd like to remind people that God created all things, all days, and we Catholic Christians are reclaiming what belongs to God. His days, as Holy Days (holidays), His religious items, His symbols. Amen and God bless

@@c.Ichthys The "Star of David" is neither holy nor godly. It is identified in Scripture as the star of Remphan/Chiun (Acts 7:43, Amos 5:26) and is associated with Molech.
