For the faithful in all English-speaking countries the publication of The New American Bible represents a notable achievement. Its pages contain a new Catholic version of the Bible in English, along with illustrations and explanations that facilitate the understanding of the text.For more than a quarter of a century, members of the Catholic Biblical Association of America, sponsored by the Bishops' Committee of the Confraternity of Christian Doctrine, have labored to create this new translation of the Scriptures from the original languages or from the oldest extant form in which the texts exist.In so doing, the translators have carried out the directive of our predecessor, Pius XI! in his famous Encyclical Divino Afflante Spiritu, and the decree of the Second Vatican Council (Dei Verbum), which prescribed that "up-to-date and appropriate translation be made in the various languages, by preference from the original texts of the sacrec books," and that "with the approval of Church authority, these translations may be produced in cooperation with our separated brethren" so that "all Christians may be able to use them."The holy task of spreading God's word to the widest possible readership has a special urgency today. Despite all his material achievements, man still struggles with the age-old problems of how to order his life for the glory of God, for the welfare of his fellows and the salvation of his soul. Therefore we are gratified to find in this new translation of the Scriptures a new opportunity for men to give themselves to frequent reading of, and meditation on, the living Word of God. In its pages we recognize His voice, we hear a message of deep significance for every one of us. Through the spiritual dynamism and prophetic force of the Bible, the Holy Spirit spreads his light and his warmth over all men, in whatever historical or sociological situation they find themselves.On all who have contributed to this translation, and all who seek in its pages the sacred teaching and the promise of salvation of Jesus Christ our Lord, we gladly bestow our paternal Apostolic BlessingFrom the Vatican, September 18, 1970Introductory MatterPresentation PageLetter from Pope Paul VIFamily Record SectionTitle PageImprimaturCopyrightsPicture of Pope John Paul IIThe Succession of PopesThe Vatican in Pictures and TextReference AidsBooks of the Old and New TestamentsAlphabetically ArrangedBooks of the Bible in Biblical Order.Acknowledgements.Collaborators on the Old TestamentThe New American Bible ...Collaborators on the Revised EditionThe New TestamentThe New American BibleDogmatic Constitution on Divine Revelation .Synchronous History of the NationsHarmony of the Gospels..Origin, Inspiration and History of the Bible..The Old Testament SectionPreface to The New American Bible - Old Testament.The Pentateuch . .Old Testament TextThe Historical Books.The Wisdom Books..The Prophetic Books.Page in Page iiPage iiiPage ivPage vPages vi-xiiiPages xiv-xxxvPages xxxvi-xliPages xlii-xlvitiPages 3-4Pages 5-6Pages 7-890Page 213Page 451Page 460The New Testament SectionPreface to the New American BibleFirst Edition of the New TestamentPreface to the Revised Edition - New TestamentThe Gospels .....New Testament Text.The New Testament Letters.Page 893Page 895-897Page 899Pages 891-1247Page 1083Additional Reference Aids in Studying the BibleEncyclopedic Dictionary andPages 1-64 in back BUY BEFORE 2 PM CENTRAL TIME - SAME DAY SHIPPING.PRML249
