The Greek Vulgate is a version of the Bible written in Biblical Greek. It consists primarily of the Septuagint for most of the Old Testament with the version of Theodotion used for the book of Daniel. For the New Testament it consists of the Greek text, typically the Majority or Byzantine Text. 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 church.
The Greek Vulgate is the de facto standard Biblical text used in the Divine Liturgy, Horologion, and other rites in the Greek Orthodox Church and the Greek Byzantine Catholic Church.
