This latest edition of the Navarre Bible includes extensive Catholic commentary for the entire New Testament all in one beautiful volume. It has wide-ranging general introductions, individual book introductions, a table of sources cited, maps, and informative notes. Compiled by the faculty of the University of Navarre, the commentaries draw on a huge variety of sources: Church documents, the writings of the Fathers and Doctors of the Church, and the work of prominent spiritual writers. Scholarly yet readable, the Navarre Bible commentaries offer a comprehensive intellectual, historical, and spiritual survey of the riches of the New Testament. They are a wonderful aid in the prayerful reading of Scripture (Lectio Divina). 

This hardback edition is larger (7 x 10 inches) to accommodate much more extensive commentary than in the Compact Edition. The commentary is also new. It avoids repetition between the Synoptic Gospels and pays more attention to the sense of the text. The larger trim size and more ample margin allows for easier reading and note-taking.

This is the first edition of a Navarre New Testament with all of the following features:

• commentary utilizing the Catechism of the Catholic Church and other recent Church documents including those of Pope Benedict XVI.
• extensive New Testament commentary all in one volume; large-format
• printed in two colors throughout (red and black)
• with RSVCE (English) and New Vulgate (Latin) texts on the same page

En la tarea de reconstruir la Iglesia, la Biblia ha sido un instrumento de excepcional importancia.

La Biblia Latinoamericana está presente en el pueblo. Su difusión ahora es inseparable de una triple renovación del pueblo cristiano, con: Una fe más cultivada y personal. – Una forma de pensar más comunitaria y menos clerical. – Una evangelización que pretende salvar a la persona entera con sus solidaridades y su expresión cultural. CARACTERSTICAS: – Esta traducción tuvo como primera referencia, los textos en hebreo y griego. – Su traducción en un lenguaje sencillo que pasa las fronteras de los países latinoamericanos, sin recurrir a términos reservados a los intelectuales. Con la preocupación de integrar en cada nueva edición los descubrimientos que aporte la investigación bíblica. – Las notas, que facilitarán a los creyentes y a las comunidades cristianas la comprensión de cada texto. – Las introducciones: una general, que proporciona una visión de conjunto sobre la Biblia y la historia del Pueblo de Dios, ofrece índices, indicaciones de fechas, cronologías y otras claves para el manejo de la Biblia; y otra particular a cada uno de los libros que forman la Biblia.

On the top of each page a verse range is included for navigation. Other features include a single-column text setting, readable type, and a book-like format. The Catholic Reader's Bible is perfect for devotional reading or extended Bible reading that focuses on the overarching narrative of the Bible.
