This commentary is not an academic, scholarly reference, but a practical, down-to-earth analysis of the entire bible, passage by passage, using the best of modern research and scholarship. Highly recommended for the average person who wishes to understand what the biblical writer is trying to communicate.

This review is from: The Collegeville Bible Commentary, Based on the New American Bible: Old Testament / New Testament (Paperback)

I was most pleased by the book I puchased. I was made aware of this books existance by the Decon of our church. I am a catholic christian and I am very involved with my parish. I am an Extraordinary Minister of the Eucharist,Minister of the word, and I also teach 3 religious education classes RCIA(adult education),Highschool ages 14 and 15 year olds, and 2nd and 3rd grade children. My problem was trying to understand the readings(scripture and gospel), and this book was the best tool I could have found to help me in my responsability to our LORD and GOD. I want to thank you for this book and I also let others know about it so they can find help in explaining and understanding. Again thx.
