Title: a very good edition of the Bible
Review: This is a very good edition of the Bible. The third world perspective is a useful balance to the plethora of study bibles writen from a "1st world" academic perspective. The work is scholarly, yet also includes much devotional and pastoral reflection, including references to Augustine and other great saints and doctors of the tradition. I would give it 5 stars except that there are a few errors in the notes ( a supplement is included pointing out the errors) and the Old Testament books are not in canonical order which can confuse the reader at first. All in all, I think that this Bible can be used with the Oxford Annotated Study Bible (Revised Standard Version) and either the New American Bible or the New Jerusalem Bible.
Is the review positive or negative?
