Why did Augustine talk about all the translations of the scriptures in contrast to modern Catholics?

Question

The modern Catholics claim that the Catholic Church cannonized the Bible, translated it, and then and only then did the churches have use of it.

The writings of all the church fathers and the multitude of translations are in fact what sparked the desire to have a uniform trasnlation controlled by the emerging Government Church.

Answer 1

Saint Augustine, a Catholic bishop, lived from 354 to 430 C.E.

The Latin translation of the Bible called the Vulgate was completed in Augustine's lifetime.

This was a current event and it should not be a surprise that Augustine commented on it.

With love in Christ.

Answer 2

The catholic Church did assemble and codify and canonize the New Testament and the Protestants follow the Catholics and Orthodox in functionally accepting its authority in doing so
There have been many translations, even Latin ones like the Old Latin and the Vulgate,under Catholic sponsorship such as the 9th cent Cyrillic Slavonic one

The Sepuaguint LXX Old testament became the rule for the Greek Church and the Vulgate (St Jerome's) became the rule for the latin Church

Happy Christmastime,everyone!

Answer 3

indeed! That is why we need another testament of Jesus Christ. the Bible of the Saints was lost! I read the Gospel of Judas a year two ago, leastwise what was in the paper, and our Pastor read us some, and it made me weep! And I read in the newspaper my son sent me from the city about a gospel where the child Jesus made some sparrows out of clay and killed another little boy what broke some of them but his mamma made him fix the boy back up, or was that that book by that vampire lady. Anyway, it made me cry to think of all those books that the Catholics took from us.
