St. Jerome was born around the year 345 AD. In 360 he went to Rome and was baptized. He then left the world to become a hermit on an island. He pursued a life of study, learning Latin, Greek and later Hebrew. He left the island and travelled into the Eastern Roman world,
settling in Antioch in 378. After a time he returned to Rome and then went to Bethlehem where he would eventually die, September 30, 420.

Most of his life he dedicated to perhaps his most famous work, of translating the Bible into Latin (the Vulgate). This would become the standard text used by the Roman Catholic church up until the present day.

Jerome also translated numerous works of early church fathers and composed a number of his own works. These include commentaries on various scriptures, as well the lives of saints that he was familiar with. Jerome's writings and translations had, and still have
an enormous impact on the Roman Catholic church.
