  1. The Vision of Piers Plowman by William Langland

    Piers Plowman is "one of the greatest examples of Middle English alliterative poetry, ... an allegorical work with a complex variety of religious themes. One of the major achievements of Piers Plowman is that it translates the language and conceptions of the cloister into symbols and images that could be understood by the layman." (Encyclopedia Britannica)

  2. Glossary of Later Latin

    Glossary of Later Latin to 600 A.D. by Alexander Souter, Oxford at the Clarendon/Sandpiper, 1949, 0198642040. https://www.amazon.com/Glossary-Later-Latin-600-D/dp/0198642040/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=glossary+of+later+latin&qid=1572414323&sr=8-1

    If you are interested in understanding the Bible, presumably you are also interested in knowing how the Early Christians understood its texts and the faith taught by the Apostles. If for this reason and/or for other reasons, you are interested in the Early Church Fathers - even if just the Greek Fathers - and/or the Vulgate, you would do well to learn Latin.

    The HCOT series by Peeters. Preferably the ones released first on Logos should by the English ones (Leviticus 1-10 by Watts, Joshua by Hosel, Judges by Spronk, Ezra/ Nehemiah by Becking, Proverbs 1-9 by Loader, Ecclesiastes by Schoor, Micah by De Moor, Nahum by Spronk, Habakkuk, Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi...... not the ones translated from other languages (Exodus, 1 Kings, 1 Chronicles, Isaiah, Lamentation, Obadiah). English translations of German translations of the Hebrew (ie. Translations of translations) ought not be first in line priority for North American research
