Interesting

The Christian Community Bible began production in 1986 to meet the need for an English version of the Bible that was both accurate and accessible for pastoral use. It has since become a popular Catholic study Bible, with new editions being coordinated by the Pastoral Bible Foundation and published by Claretian Publications. The unique order of books in the Christian Community Bible blends the Jewish and Catholic traditions, offering a fresh perspective on the arrangement of the scriptures.
