Greek Vulgate
The Greek Vulgate is a version of the Bible written in Biblical Greek. Its text is from the Septuagint for most of the Old Testament with the version of Theodotion used for the Book of Daniel. Its New Testament text is the Greek New Testament, typically the Majority or Byzantine Text. The Greek Vulgate is the de facto standard Biblical text used in the Divine Liturgy, Horologion, and other rites in all Greek-Language Eastern Churches - the Greek Orthodox Church: including the Church of Greece, the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople, and the Church of Cyprus - as well as the Greek Byzantine Catholic Church.
The term Greek Vulgate is commonly used in the West to refer to the Textus Receptus of the New Testament, although the Textus Receptus is not the common edition used in the Greek churches.
