Meets a long-unmet need among Catholics for a conservative Bible resource.

Simply put, it is fantastic and a great tool for Catholics.

Once a generation a truly unique Bible tool is given to the Church. The Ignatius Study Bible is a gift for our generation. This is the most important book since the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Every parish study group and every student of Sacred Scripture should own and use this.

I was so Blessed to find the Ignatius Bible..I would go in to Veratis in Dublin each week looking for a Bible & every week i'd leave empty handed. It was truly painful. So i decided to look online & found this Bible & i was able to read some passages before buying. I wanted a Bible that i would enjoy reading & learning from, but also a Bible that i could use to help other's who were having problems with certain teaching's of the Church.-SO MY BIBLE WOULD HAVE TO BE EXACT WHEN IT CAME THE MARIAN DOCTRINES. It pains me to see in the NRSV," Hail, O, Highly favoured one"..A lot of Bishop's we see on TV in recent year's have the Ignatius Bible tucked under the arm..I would also suggest the DIDACHE BIBLE, as it uses the very same translation but also includes over 100 pages of APOLOGETICS. Writings from the Church Father's & also the Apostolic Father's, going back to the 1st century & defending Catholic Teaching-(THIS IS SO POWERFUL). included also is the many quotes from the catechism..I find it an amazing Bible for evangelization or as a gift to someone entering the Church and for my own reading up on the saints & their view which is to this day the very same--HOW AWESOME IS THIS..
