Some scholars separate between Mal 3:19-21 (MT) and Mal 3:22-24 (MT), whereas Jerome translates these verses and combines them so that the Vulgate version states the section Mal 3:19-24 (MT) to be a unit as Mal 4:1-6 (VUL). The aim of this short paper is to outline both the textual problems within these verses and their solutions; furthermore, this short paper especially wants to consider value and prospects of Jerome’s Vulgate version.
