Product Description

After years of scholarly labor and review, the first major update to the New American Bible (NAB) text in 20 years is approved for publication. The New American Bible Revised Edition (NABRE)accomplishes three major goals in Biblical scholarship: First, a more accurate translation aided by modern archeological and historical discoveries; second, a more consistent rendering of the Greek and Hebrew to more closely express the meaning of the original text; and third, revisions in the NABRE reflect changes in modern English usage of particular words (ex. "burnt offering" substituted for "holocaust").

Features:

Black, Premium Ultra soft cover
Gilded page edges
Words of Christ in red
Old Master Art depicting the Life of Christ
Beautiful Presentation and Family Record pages
Extensive notes, commentary, cross references, a 3 year cycle of readings for Sunday and weekday Masses, and favorite Catholic prayers
Easy-to-read- typesetting (10 point font size)
Measures 5" x 8"
The New American Bible Revised Edition has the 2011 revised Old Testament & Psalms.

By:	jetron (Webster, MA, April 23, 2012) Verified Buyer
Bottom Line:	No, I would not recommend this to a friend. daily reading. The red type for Jesus' words would be more useful if the font was larger. The small black font is hard to read, and the red even harder at that size.

Praise & Flaws 2.00 out of 5

By:	Grandfather (Pennsylvania, April 12, 2012) Verified Buyer
Pros:	Favorite Catholic prayers; Family Register; Presentation Page;
Cons:	Personalization; Size slightly too large; Poor print quality;
Bottom Line:	No, I would not recommend this to a friend. I purchased this as a gift. I especially liked the flow of the text and the pros noted above. I was very disappointed in the Personalization. It was placed asymetrically across the lower front. I expected the letters to be smaller, in the lower right corner, with gold foil to match the edge of the pages. In comparison to the text print of a Bible that I have yours is dull and lacks clarity. To me the Bible is oversized for personal use.

Pros:	The word of God in red;
Cons:	Haven't found any;
Best Uses:	Confirmation gift;
Bottom Line:	Yes, I would recommend this to a friend. Bought this as a Confirmation gift for my son. He was very happy with the look of it and that it has his name and the date of his Confirmation on the cover. I like the idea that this is a family Bible that he will have for the rest of his life. We both agree that it is nice that he can start keeping a log of his current family happenings, along with his future family, on the pages provided. I will be purchasing another one, in two years, for my daughter.
