In local parishes, upper levels of secondary schools, and introductory college classes, the Personal Study Edition provides superb study resources for readers that will open the text of the Bible to new understanding and greater appreciation for all.

Informative... Reliable... Accessible

First published more than a quarter century ago, The Catholic Bible: Personal Study Edition has long served readers eager for a reliable, accessible guide to lead them into the biblical text. Thumb-indexed for convenience, this third edition is fully revised and augmented with new study aids such as in-text essays on topics that enhance one's reading of the text. The "Reading Guides" that come before the text of the New American Bible Revised Edition -- the translation used in the great majority of U.S. Catholic parishes -- provide a concise, accessible overview of each individual book of the Bible, leading readers through the backgrounds, characters, and messages of all the books and their implications for our lives today. Lay people -- individuals or members of study groups -- students, and general readers will all find essential information in a form that is easy to use and organized for quick reference.

Graziano Marcheschi is Vice President for University Mission and Ministry, Saint Xavier University Chicago. Biagio Mazza is Pastoral Associate at St. Sabina Parish in Belton, Missouri.
