The Catholic Youth Bible™
New Revised Standard Version: Catholic Edition
Translation philosophy
The New Revised Standard Verson was developed by a renowned group of biblical scholars. Working with the best original texts, they aimed for a literal translation following the maxim "As literal as possible, as free as necessary." The translation is also "sensitive to the danger of linguistic sexism." The New Revised Standard Version is perfect for teens who want a literal translation of the Bible in a contemporary setting.
Designed for readers at the eighth-grade level and beyond, The Catholic Youth Bible™ includes advice for interpreting the Bible and a system for Bible study, alone or in a group. Study materials also include nine full-color maps, eight reading plans, four special indexes, a full-color timeline, and four pages of full-color photographs.
