A beautiful update of the popular and beloved New Jerusalem Bible, the modern yet faithful translation featuring rich, clear, poetic language that’s made it a favorite of casual readers and scholars alike For all who are discovering the mysteries contained in Scripture for the first time and for those coming to this holy book for scholarly study, only a straightforward, understandable Bible translation will do. The Revised New Jerusalem Bible is the one Christians the world over can trust. The Revised New Jerusalem Bible presents anew the scholarship, character, and clarity of the 1966 Jerusalem Bible (the first modern English version) and the 1985 New Jerusalem Bible. Features include: • a literary tradition dating back to the 1966 translation of the book of Jonah by J. R. R. Tolkien • accurate translation of the original scriptures rather than the “dynamic equivalence” of some other modern versions • ancient systems of measure and time replaced by modern, metric equivalents • assurance that the message of the Bible is directed to men and women equally • the book of Psalms based on the text of the 2010 translation of The Revised Grail Psalms • a table of notes providing explanations of the key words, themes, and ideas in the Bible’s major footnotes • a chronological table, an index of persons, and eight pages of full-color maps This comprehensive Study Edition is the world’s first presentation of the full Revised New Jerusalem Bible, complete with study notes, cross-references, and book introductions. It has been prepared and edited for a modern readership by Dom Henry Wansbrough, OSB, who was general editor of the New Jerusalem Bible.
