This review is from: Christian Community Bible: Translated, Presented and Commented for the Christian Communities of the Philippines and the Third World; And for Those Who Seek God : Complete Text (Hardcover)

This Bible is a real joy to read! It's notes and comments reflect both deep reverence for God and His Word, and respect for the findings of modern science. This is the most enjoyable Bible translation I have found to date, and I highly recommend it to everyone as a superb devotional Bible.

4.0 out of 5 stars a very good edition of the Bible, May 10, 1999

By A Customer

This is a very good edition of the Bible. The third world perspective is a useful balance to the plethora of study bibles writen from a "1st world" academic perspective. The work is scholarly, yet also includes much devotional and pastoral reflection, including references to Augustine and other great saints and doctors of the tradition. I would give it 5 stars except that there are a few errors in the notes ( a supplement is included pointing out the errors) and the Old Testament books are not in canonical order which can confuse the reader at first. All in all, I think that this Bible can be used with the Oxford Annotated Study Bible (Revised Standard Version) and either the New American Bible or the New Jerusalem Bible.
