Life

Epitaph of Joseph Franz von Allioli at the church of the Hermanfriedhof in Augsburg

Allioli's parents were Georg Ulrich Allioli (1776-1832) and Anna Margarete, nee Hirschmann (1778-1823).

After graduating from high school in 1809, Allioli studied theology at the (today's) Wilhelmsgymnasium in Munich at the University of Landshut . He was a student of Johann Michael Sailer .

In 1816 he was ordained a priest in Regensburg and then studied in Vienna, Rome and Paris.

In 1821 he became a lecturer in Landshut, in 1823 an associate professor and in 1824 a full professor of oriental languages, exegesis and biblical archeology. After the University of Landshut moved to Munich in 1826, he became a professor at the University of Munich . In addition, he was an extraordinary member of the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Rector of the University from 1830 and a full member from 1835 . A sore throat forced him to move to Regensburg. In 1838 he became provost of the cathedral chapter in Augsburg. His translation of the Bible is based on the Latin Vulgate , taking into account the Hebrew and Greek texts. As the first German-language translation with papal printing permission, it was published in six volumes between 1830 and 1834. It was revised in 1899 by Augustin Arndt and in 1965 by Eleonore Beck and Gabriele Miller. From the second half of the 19th to the middle of the 20th century, the Allioli Bible was the most common Catholic translation of the Bible in German-speaking countries. In the use of the Catholic liturgy, it was replaced by the standard translation. In 2013, however, it was re-published by Nova et Vetera-Verlag in a carefully linguistically edited form of the text already revised by Ludwig Athanasius Wintersig (1900–1942).

Based on the translation from the Vulgate, the numbering of the Psalms differs from that of the translations in use today, which are based on the classification of Robert Estiennes in this regard .

Reading sample

Mt 18,23-24  EU , based on an edition of the British and Foreign Bible Society , Vienna 1950:

“That is why the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to hold an account with his servants. When he began to do math, someone brought him someone who owed him ten thousand talents. "

Mt 5 : 1-4  EU (beginning of the Sermon on the Mount ), based on an edition from 1851:

“When Jesus saw the multitudes, he went up on the mountain, and when he had sat down, his disciples came up to him. And he opened his mouth, and taught them, and said, Blessed are the poor in spirit; for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are the meek; for they will own the earth. Blessed are those who mourn; for they will be comforted. "
