The Catholic Bible, Personal Study
Edition: New American Bible
Not Just For 'Students'
One study Bible doesnt fit all, so Oxford publishes Catholic editions to suit
the needs of new and seasoned Scripture students alike. The Personal
Study Edition is ideal for the beginners, whether its used within the context
of the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults or other such parish-based
scripture education programs. It provides a wealth of background
information in a single volume that informs readers without overwhelming
them. The Second Edition features all new callouts in the biblical text, a
revised Reading Guide and enlarged section introductions and introductory
essays on topics such as how to read the Bible. The Questions for
Discussion that follow each books section in the Reading Guide are newly
revised and expanded. They focus on these themes: Group
Sharing/Discussion, In Our Lives, and Individual/Personal
Reflection/Action. In addition, theres a glossary to terms that may be
unfamiliar to some readers, the Sunday and weekday lectionary readings,

a select NAB concordance, and an indexed section of New Oxford Bible
Maps.
* Marginal references in the biblical text that point to specific pages in the
Reading Guide are screened for greater visibility
* A 25-page glossary defines biblical terms with which students may not
be familiar
* A 36-page section of authoritative, full color New Oxford Bible Maps
(with place name index)
Personal Review: The Catholic Bible, Personal Study Edition:
New American Bible
The Catholic Bible, Personal Study Edition, is a phenomenal resource for
any 'student' of Scripture. The background information allows the reader to
better understand the historical context during which Scipture was written.
Having already owned my copy of this Bible, I purchased 2 additional
copies; one for my parish library and the other for a Priest who was
extrememly impressed with the contents.
