A completely new Catholic translation in conformity with the Church's translation guidelines, the New Catholic Version is intended to be used by Catholics for daily prayer and meditation, as well as private devotion and group study as an alternative to other translations currently available. This faithful, reader-friendly translation of the New Testament was prepared by the same team that prepared the New Catholic Version of the Psalms released in 2002 and has been widely acclaimed for its readability and copious, well-written, and informative notes. This St. Joseph Edition with photographs and maps of the Holy Land and many other Bible helps, including the words of Christ in red, features a brown, engravable, imitation leather cover and gilded edges. Gift boxed.
