Fr. Hilary de Jean, OSB, made the original Saint Meinrad translation and published it in 1937. He later transferred his stability to Saint Joseph Abbey in St. Benedict, LA.<\/p>\n

In 1956, Grail Publications at Saint Meinrad printed the translation with a note that it had been revised in 1950. That revision mainly included an updating of the Scripture references from the translation of the Confraternity of Christian Doctrine.<\/p>\n

This revision follows Fr. Hilary\u2019s goal of remaining close to the Latin as addressed to the original audience and context. Translations of the mid- and late-20th century have sought a more idiomatic translation, while more recent versions have adopted an inclusive approach which has precedents in the tradition. Each approach has its advantages.<\/p>\n

The Rule<\/em> follows the numbering of the psalms in the Septuagint and Vulgate. They have been adjusted to follow the numbering in the Hebrew, as found in translations today.<\/p>\n

Fr. Harry Hagan, OSB, made this revision. Various monks reviewed the first draft and offered many helpful comments that greatly improved the revision: Fr. Vincent Tobin, OSB, Fr.\u00a0Colman Grabert, OSB, Fr. Guerric DeBona, OSB, Fr.\u00a0Eugene Hensell, OSB, Br.\u00a0Francis de Sales Wagner, OSB, and Fr. Mateo Zamora, OSB. The text was also reviewed by Fr. Aelred Kavanagh, OSB, of Saint Joseph Abbey, and Fr.\u00a0Joel Rippinger, OSB, of Marmion Abbey.<\/p>\n

Br.\u00a0Francis de Sales Wagner, OSB, also served as the copy editor and a proofreader. Fr.\u00a0Mateo Zamora, OSB, and Mrs. Mary Jeanne Schumacher also assisted as proofreaders.<\/p>\n

This revision follows the Latin text given in the RB 1980<\/em> taken from the Latin text of Jean Neufville in La R\u00e8gle de Saint Beno\u00eet<\/em>, Sources Chr\u00e9tiennes, 181-182. Paris: Les \u00c9ditions du Cerf, 1972.<\/p>\n
