Reviews
* 'The best contemporary translation of the Bible, beautifully presented, superbly footnoted, and an obvious must for every Catholic household.' * James Martin, SJ *
* The NRSV is my first choice, both for my college classes and for my own study and devotion. The careful scholarship of the translation, the generosity of the pronouns, and the invaluable textual notations make this translation my most trusted friend in preaching, teaching, worship and prayer. * Barbara Brown Taylor *
* I view the NRSV translation to be the finest English Bible we have today. Its scholarship is impeccable. The English is accurate, approachable, and readable. I recommend it highly. * Richard J. Foster *
* The NRSV is indispensable for serious study of the Bible. Over and over again, it powerfully illuminates the more difficult passages in the beautiful King James and the Douay-Rheims Versions. A joy to read. * Anne Rice *
