Review "The RNJB fulfils the pressing need for a lucid translation with clear explanatory notes for use in public and private reading, for instruction and for the liturgy." -- Dom Henry Wansbrough OSB"The Revised New Jerusalem Bible is an outstanding piece of work." -- Nicholas King"The RNJB is one of the most beautiful and poetic of all the translations of the Bible. Years ago, I read the New Jerusalem Bible and was astonished at how it brought to vivid life the stories of the Old and New Testament. One could, I discovered with delight, read them as if you were reading a well-written story. Now the RNJB improves on this by updating its scholarship and its sensitivity to subtle changes in contemporary English, and in the process introduces the Bible to a new generation of readers." -- Fr James Martin SJ, author of Jesus: A Pilgrimage, editor at large, America Magazine Details ISBN0232533628 Series Revised New Jerusalem Bible ISBN-10 0232533628 ISBN-13 9780232533620 Format Hardcover Media Book Year 2019 Place of Publication London Country of Publication United Kingdom Imprint Darton, Longman & Todd Ltd Publisher Darton, Longman & Todd Ltd Pages 2416 Publication Date 2019-07-10 UK Release Date 2019-07-10 Author Henry Wansbrough DEWEY 225.5207 Audience General NZ Release Date 2025-01-13 AU Release Date 2025-01-13 We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
