Product Description
The Second Vatican Council's call for biblical renewal in every aspect of Catholic life revealed the need for a key to the Scriptures that would communicate their power by means of modern scholarship. The Catholic Study Bible addressed this crucial need. It has been widely accepted for use by advanced students, who have benefited from its wealth of background information on the historical, literary, and theological dimensions of the Bible.

The Second Edition of this landmark resource has been significantly upgraded. The study notes have been completely rewritten, and there are new and expanded essays and sidebars on special topics in the study materials and biblical text.

The heart of this edition's ancillary materials remains its extensive Reading Guide that leads the reader through the Scriptures, book by book. Clear marginal references in the biblical text point to specific pages in the Reading Guide, easing the retrieval of important background information.
A 15-page Glossary defines biblical terms with which students may not be familiar. Also included is a handy 72-page selective concordance (index) to the New American Bible translation. This resource is a valuable aid to in-depth Scripture study (not available in the College Edition). Also included: the complete Sunday and weekday lectionary readings for all three liturgical years of the Church, plus 32 pages of authoritative, full-color Oxford Bible Maps with place-name index.

I find this book to be a great tool in reading the Bible. Don't be put-off by the word Study, in the title. This reference book is easy to use and does not require a pre-knowledge to start right in. Reading guides, maps, glossary, liturgical year readings, footnotes and other additions to the Bible itself, let the reader decide how much and how to learn more about the Bible.

I had this book in just three days and that is from the day I placed the order. It was wrapped up very nicely. I was not real sure who to purchase this book through but Amazon had the best price and I see I made the right decision

Great Content, Poor binding September 6, 2008
Janick (Raleigh, North Carolina)
0 out of 1 found this review helpful

The content of this boble is wonderful. The reader's guide is extremely informative. I would give the content 5 stars however, the binding on the hardcover is inadequate. I am very careful and I keep my Bible in a carrying case however, the second time I used the Bible an entire section fell out. Within 2 months of purchasing the Bible all of the the pages had seperated from the binding. It appears as if the weight of the pages is too heavy for the binding. Eventually, the entire binding seperated from the cover. I had to purchase a new Bible after less than one year. I must admit that I love the content so much that I purchased another Catholic Study Bible however, I purchased the paperback this time.
