Father Owens says Bible never lost and printing predates Martin
In a lecture Father Eugene Owens argues the Bible was never lost, noting Gutenberg printed the Latin Vulgate in 1456, well before Martin’s birth. He cites Caxton and language issues in England, and says English Bible translations were delayed by church caution until properly authorized scholars produced a correct translation about a century later.
