Why 30 September?

为什么选择9月30日CoinFit？

30 September celebrates the feast of St. Jerome, the Bible translator, who is considered the patron saint of translators.

9月30日是纪念圣杰罗姆的圣人瞻礼日CoinFit。圣杰罗姆是通俗拉丁文本《圣经》的译者。

St. Jerome was a priest from North-eastern Italy, who is known mostly for his endeavor of translating most of the Bible into Latin from the Greek manus of the New Testament. He also translated parts of the Hebrew Gospel into Greek. He was of Illyrian ancestry and his native tongue was the Illyrian dialect. He learned Latin in school and was fluent in Greek and Hebrew, which he picked up from his studies and travels. Jerome died near Bethlehem on 30 September 420.

圣杰罗姆是意大利东北部的一名神父，因将《圣经新约》希腊文手稿的大部分翻译成拉丁文而闻名CoinFit。他还将部分《希伯来福音书》翻译成了希腊文。圣杰罗姆拥有伊利里亚人血统，母语是伊利里亚方言。他曾在学校学习拉丁文，又在游学过程中研习并精通了希腊文和希伯来文。公元420年9月30日，圣杰罗姆在伯利恒附近去世。
