"In preparing for the international Synod of Bishops on 'The Sacred
Scriptures in the Life and Mission of the Church, ' Pope Benedict
XVI reminded the Church that a prayerful study of the Scriptures is
at the heart of the Church's renewal. The new Catholic Commentary
on Sacred Scripture promises to directly serve that purpose.
Drawing on sound biblical scholarship, the commentaries present the
reader with the rich harvest of that study, reflecting on the
message of the biblical text and engaging the life of faith from a
Catholic perspective."--Donald Senior, CP, president, Catholic
Theological Union
"When the Scripture is read in the liturgy, it is heard as a
living voice. But when expounded in a commentary, it is too often
read as a document from the past. This fine new series unites the
ancient and the contemporary by offering insight into the biblical
text--verse by verse--as well as spiritual application to the lives
of Christians today."--Robert Louis Wilken, University of
Virginia
"By bringing together historical background, exegetical
interpretation, church tradition, theological reflection, and
pastoral application, this series promises to enkindle thoughtful
discussion about the implications of the New Testament for lived
Christian faith in the Church today. Its accessible format and
multi-angled approach offer a model for teaching and
ministry."--Katherine Hayes, Seminary of the Immaculate
Conception
"This series is a landmark achievement in theological
interpretation of Scripture in and for the Church. Everything about
it is inviting and edifying. It is a wonderful gift to the Catholic
Church and a model for the rest of us. Highly recommended for
all!"--Michael J.Gorman, St. Mary's Seminary and University,
Baltimore
"The Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture is an ideal tool
for living our faith more deeply. This extraordinary resource
combines superior scholarship and a vivid, accessible style that
will serve the interested layperson and the serious scholar equally
well. It feeds both the mind and the heart and should be on the
shelf of every committed Catholic believer. I highly recommend
it."--Charles J. Chaput, OFM Cap, Archbishop of Denver
