| BEFORE Douay-Rheims Version (DRV) | AFTER New American Bible Revised Edition (NABRE) King |
| For this cause I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, of whom all paternity in heaven and earth is named, | I kneel before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, |
Why is this change important?
From drbo.org: “All paternity: Or, the whole family. God is the Father, both of angels and men; whosoever besides is named father, is so named with subordination to him.” “Paternity” is a confirmation of “Patriarchy” and these are accursed words in the lexicon of feminists and their modernist collaborators.
Additional Notes
As a side note, this text illustrates that God the Father is father to all the angels in heaven as well as of all men.
