5.0 out of 5 stars
Wonderful low-priced edition for serious study,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Saint Joseph New Testament-Nab (Paperback)
This edition is perfect for serious study for anyone willing to confront the New Testament appreciatively but critically. Though low-priced, it is very extensively annotated and cross-referenced, more than the Harper-Collins Study Bible and much more than the Oxford Annotated Bible. It is a Catholic version with the imprimatur of the Vatican, but is very scholarly and self-critical. For example, regarding Jesus' entry into Jerusalem where Matt. 21:5-7 describes Jesus as riding on both an ass and a colt fulfilling the prophecy of Zech. 9:9, this edition points out that only one animal was involved, and the duplication was a Hebrew literary device (parallelism), and "that Matthew takes them as two is one of the reasons why some scholars think that he was a Gentile rather than a Jewish Christian who would presumably not make that mistake." The edition also has very extensive study guides.
