Meaning & History
Form of Jemuel used in the Douay-Rheims Bible (1582-1610; English) and the Clementine Vulgate (1592; Latin). The latter was the official Bible of the Roman Catholic Church for nearly four centuries: from the year it was published until 1979. It seems to have been considerably influenced by medieval Latin, for Jamuel is in accordance with the orthography of medieval Latin and not with that of classical Latin, as the latter did not have the letter J.
