| Publisher Description: Each year thousands of Christians commit to read through the Bible in a year. THE NRSV DAILY BIBLE makes that easier and more meaningful by helping people reflect on these rich truths. Broken up into 365 daily readings, this Bible will feature thought-provoking meditations based on the practice of Lectio Divina (literally "divine reading"), a contemplative approach to reading the Bible. By rediscovering the ancient practice of Lectio Divina, readers will be inspired to set aside time each day to read, meditate, pray, and contemplate Scripture in a deeper way. Key features of this Bible include: - New Revised Standard Version text - the most trusted, accepted, and accurate translation of the Bible on the market - Individual book introductions to aide in the practice of Lectio Divina ("divine reading") - A daily reading plan that can be started at any time during the year - Meditations from well-known Christian thinkers and writers such as Henri Nouwen, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Thomas Merton, and Frederick Buechner. |
Contributor Bio(s): New Revised Standard Version: - The New Revised Standard Version is the translation used by mainline Protestant churches, Orthodox churches, and by many Catholics. The New Revised Standard Version is recognized in scholarly circles as the most accurate translation into English of the original Hebrew and Greek texts. In the tradition of its predecessors, the King James Version and the Revised Standard Version, the NRSV was designed to be the "standard" version for English-speaking people across all denominations, which in many ways it has become. None of the new, more sectarian translations have approached its standards of elegance and accuracy. Catholic Bible Press: -Catholic Bible Press specializes in creating beautiful Bibles and resources that serve a deeper understanding of God through the Sacred Scriptures of the Christian faith. |
