"This well-written book fills a very important niche in our
appreciation of the Gospels. Healy combines literary sensitivity
with theological vigor, resulting in a reading of Mark that puts a
compelling face on the message of this Gospel."--Gary Anderson,
University of Notre Dame
"Mary Healy skillfully and insightfully moves her readers to
plumb the spiritual depths of Mark's Gospel. I have found her
commentary a boon in homily preparation. If the other volumes in
the Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture live up to the high
standard that Healy has attained, Catholic Christians will be
enriched and grateful."--Robert J. Karris, OFM, The Franciscan
Institute, St. Bonaventure University
Praise for the Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture
"Coinciding with the Bishops' Synod on 'The Word of God in the
Life and Mission of the Church, ' this seventeen-volume commentary
on the New Testament represents a much-needed approach, based on
good scholarship but not overloaded with it. The frequent
references to the "Catechism of the Catholic Church" help us to
read Holy Scripture with a vivid sense of the Living Tradition of
the Church."--Christoph Cardinal Schonborn, Archbishop of
Vienna
"This series richly provides what has for so long been lacking
among contemporary scriptural commentaries. Its goal is to assist
Catholic preachers and teachers, lay and ordained, in their
ministry of the word. Moreover, it offers ordinary Catholics a
scriptural resource that will enhance their understanding of God's
word and thereby deepen their faith. Thus these commentaries,
nourished on the faith of the Church and guided by scholarly
wisdom, are both exegetically sound and
spirituallynourishing."--Thomas G. Weinandy, OFM Cap, United States
Conference of Catholic Bishops
"The Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture is a landmark
achievement in theological interpretation of Scripture in and for
the Church. Everything about it is inviting and edifying, from the
format, photos, background notes, and cross-references to the rich
exposition of the text, quotations from the Church's living
tradition, and reflections for contemporary life. 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
