Praise for the Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture
"This series represents a much-needed approach, based on good scholarship but not overloaded with it. The frequent references to the Catechism of the Catholic Church help us to read Holy Scripture with a vivid sense of the Living Tradition of the Church."
--Christoph Cardinal Schönborn, Archbishop of Vienna
"By bringing together historical background, exegetical interpretation, church tradition, theological reflection, and pastoral application, this series promises to enkindle thoughtful discussion about the implications of the New Testament for lived Christian faith in the Church today."
--Katherine Hayes, Seminary of the Immaculate Conception
"There is a great hunger among Catholic laity for a deeper understanding of the Bible. The Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture fills the need for a more in-depth interpretation of Scripture."
--Gail Buckley, founder and director, Catholic Scripture Study International
