I've scanned the English translation of Jerome's Commentary on Daniel,
and placed it online at:

http://www.tertullian.org/fathers#jerome

The whole text is public domain: please feel free to take copies, put
them on your own websites, etc etc.

All the best,

Roger --

There is another version of this at
http://www.attalus.org/translate/daniel.html  It has the advantage that the
individual sections are bookmarked, so you can link to them directly from an
external site.  I have used this feature extensively in my Ptolemaic web
genealogy.  I encourage you to include bookmarks in future releases, they
are a bit tedious to put in but are extremely useful.

Wow!

Thanks to both Roger and Chris for bring it up.

Does anyone know where there are some good translations of the
"Septuagint"?

Chris,

Thanks for the note.  Attalus did his own translation of the bits
relating to Porphyry from the Greek, and so had section numbers
available to him.  The complete translation did not contain section
numbers, otherwise I would have included them and made them into
bookmarks.  The chapters do have bookmarks.

I agree that the ability to reference a paragraph would be useful.
However, my priority is really getting texts online rather than
indexing them.

What is the URL for your Ptolemaic genealogy: it sounds interesting.

Curious.  I'm not very far away: in Ipswich in Suffolk.

Cheers,

Appearance are deceiving. Tyndale hosts the site (there is a mirror on
GeoCities, which is the original), but I live in not-so-sunny-today San
Diego.  Though, my mother is from Bury St Edmunds.

This morning the roads around here are blocked with jack-knifed
lorries, and there is half an inch of snow down.

All the best,

We have a dusting in Hertfordshire but things seem to be going on as
usual. My daughter's after school football has benn cancelled but even
the indoor clubs are cancelled too so I suspect that it is because
they are wary of what is to come later.

It's been much over-hyped so far.  It's just not really cold enough to
snow-up seriously.  The only reason we have snow now is that it froze
last night so that the snow which fell later didn't melt on hitting the
ground.

All the best,

You're not in North Yorkshire then?

Here we've got five inches of the bloody stuff and all but one of the roads
out of town are closed.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe
Barbeques on fire by chalets past the headland
I've watched the gift shops glitter in the darkness off Newborough
All this will pass like ice-cream on the beach
Time for tea

No doubt.  But to judge from the weather reports, most of East Anglia
is in the same state, which is quite ridiculous.

All the best,

Roger Pearse
