Description

The Good News Study Bible, Catholic Edition, is a comprehensive Bible designed to facilitate a deeper understanding of entire passages and books, rather than focusing solely on individual verses. This edition features the Good News Translation (GNB/TEV) with British spelling and is edited by The Reverend Professor Paul Ellingworth. It includes 2039 pages of biblical text, study notes, and additional resources such as specially designed maps and diagrams. The Bible text is presented in a single column with study notes in another column to the right, and section introductions are highlighted with a blue background for easy identification.

Interesting

This edition places a greater emphasis on book and section introductions, providing context about how each book was written and transmitted. This approach, along with less comprehensive verse-by-verse notes compared to other study Bibles, aims to enhance the reader's overall understanding of the Scriptures. The Good News Study Bible stands out for its user-friendly design and the inclusion of additional resources that aid in the study of the Bible, making it an invaluable tool for Catholics seeking to deepen their knowledge and faith.
