Kindle Fire owners, please read the note at the very bottom.
Features of this version of the Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible:
– Direct Verse Jump and Direct Verse Jump-2, two revolutionary new methods to open the exact verse you need in mere seconds (read the instructions at the beginning of the publication)
– two other ways to navigate between books and chapters: (i) using a hyperlinked table of contents; and (ii) pressing the 5-way controller right or left to move between chapters and books of the Bible. Once you learn all four navigation methods, you will be able to open any verse in your Kindle Bible as fast as (or even faster than) in your paper copy
– the complete text of the Douay-Rheims Bible, including all of the deuterocanonical books
– correct chapter and verse numbering, which corresponds to the Vulgate (not the KJV)
– the text of this electronic edition has been painstakingly verified to be true to the D-R paper edition
– original text, D-R book titles are carefully preserved (for example, see the subtitles in Psalms)
– beautifully formatted
– easy to determine where you are in the Bible
– the traditional verse-per-line format
– as any Kindle book, the Douay-Rheims Bible is searchable; however, when you first install the file please wait for the Kindle to index the whole Bible (it can take hours or sometimes days). The file is large and it takes a long time to index.
NOTE: Many features of this publication will not work on Kindle 1, Kindle Fire, software Kindles such as Kindles for PC, iPad, iPhone, Blackberry or Android. This edition is not TTS(text-to-speech)-friendly due to the way TTS works on the Kindle.
