I actually started on this last year and have read Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts, and Romans 1-8. I plan to finish reading the NT by early 2024, and I may read-along with the group if I can make it align. It's a great idea, and I've enjoyed my own Vulgate reading so far.

Junius, what passages or books would you recommend for beginners? They are using Henle Latin. I have two in Henle 1 and one in Henle 4.

It is not: I know not everyone uses social media. One could also use the comments over here for some discussion!

I will be working from this version, by Deutsche Bibelgesellschaft: https://www.amazon.com/Biblia-Sacra-Vulgata-Vulgate-Bible/dp/1598561782/

It has full critical apparatus and present the Psalms in both the Septuagint and Hebrew versions.
