Description
One study Bible doesn't 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 it's 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 book's 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, there's 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.
