Daniel 3:24

Verse 24. And, and so forth “What follows I have not found in the Hebrew volumes.” Saint Jerome Bible.—Here S. Jerom takes notice, that from this verse to verse 91 was not in the Hebrew in his time. But as it was in all the Greek Bibles, (which were originally translated from the Hebrew) it is more than probable that it had been formerly in the Hebrew; or rather in the Chaldaic, in which the Book of Daniel was written. But this is certain: that it is and has been of old, received by the Church, and read as canonical Scripture in her liturgy and divine offices. Challoner.—See the pref. Worthington.
