Louis de Carrières

Louis de Carrières (1 September 1662, Angers, France—11 June 1717, Paris) was a French priest and Bible commentator.

•

The first volumes published at Paris and Reims in the beginning of the eighteenth century were heartily welcomed and highly recommended by Jacques-Bénigne Bossuet, who encouraged the writer to pursue his work.

•

During the nineteenth century Carrières's version was frequently reprinted, often with the commentaries of Menochius, sometimes also with the notes of nineteenth-century interpreters, like Sionnet (1840) and Claude-Joseph Drioux (1884).
